Charles Empson
Acuarelas botánicas sudamericanas
Charles Empson, un comerciante de grabados y acuarelas en Bath, Inglaterra, pasó tres años viajando por la parte norte de América del Sur, principalmente en lo que hoy es Colombia, desde 1824 hasta 1827. Sus dibujos originales de las plantas exóticas de América del Sur, que conoció por primera vez en ese viaje, presentan a un artista de técnica y logros sobresalientes, más conocido por las narrativas de sus viajes por América del Sur. Empson viajó desde Cienega, en la costa norte de Colombia, a través de las cordilleras central y oriental de los Andes hasta Honda, en el sur, por el río Magdalena, y hacia el este hasta Venezuela.
