Details
Emma Peachey (died 1875) was a British artist, author and instructor who made wax models of flowers and fruit, and is sometimes considered to have re-popularised wax flowers in Victorian Britain. She benefited from royal patronage, becoming "Artiste in Wax Flowers" to Queen Victoria in 1839 and making ten thousand white wax roses for the royal wedding. A review in The Times describes her work as "perfect of its kind". Her books include the manual The Royal Guide to Wax Flower Modelling (1851), which the historian Ann B. Shteir characterises as trying to "bridge a growing divide between art and science".
