From her popular and highly influential botanical series, The Ladies' Flower-Garden, which by its accessible nature opened up the possibilities for gardening as a viable pursuit for women. The manuals comprised the simple yet effective formula of brief texts and charming hand-coloured illustrations. The descriptions included common plant names in English, their order and genus, some historical notes and instructions for cultivation. Jane Wells Webb Loudon began her botanical series in 1838 in order to alleviate the debt incurred by her husband, the renowned botanist, garden designer and horticultural writer John Loudon. Together they were regarded as leading horticulturists of their day, but Mrs Loudon recognised a lack of available material for the non-specialist plant enthusiast. Loudon was highly prolific and received awards from the Royal Literary Fund. Her circle of friends included Charles Dickens and William Makepeace Thackeray.

Prior to her marriage her fiction writing, "The Mummy," an early science fiction novel, adumbrated perhaps by Mary Shelley's "Frankenstein," and published anonymously in 1827 by Henry Colburn, received favorable reviews.

Manuskript / Papierantiquität
8vo. 3 pp. on bifolium. To a gentleman, about designs which Loudon would accept from the recipient's friend for "The Ladies' Companion at Home and Abroad", the new editor of which Loudon had just become, and discussing a severe disease torturing a family member: "I have been employed to edit a new illustrated paper, in which imaginative designs are wanted, & it has struck me that those you showed us by a friend of yours might do. Would you have any objection to bring your friend here to drink tea at ½ past 5 on Sunday next; or if you don't like Sunday, on Monday; & I shall be very glad if he would bring one or two of his designs with him. I am afraid Agnes [i. e. Jane's daughter] won't be able to keep her birthday this year; on account of the dangerous illness of a near relation, one of her father's sister, as the disease though lingering will probably terminate in death. We all join in kind regards [.]". - In 1827, Jane Webb had published her famous tale "The Mummy", in which Pharaoh Khufu is brought back to life in the year 2126. The novel describes a future filled with advanced technology and was the first English-language story to feature a reanimated mummy. Following a favourable review in The Gardener's Magazine, the reviewer, the Scottish botanist John Claudius Loudon, sought out the 22-year-old Webb, and they married the next year, after which she devoted much of her literary efforts to supporting his interests. The women's magazine "The Ladies' Companion at Home and Abroad" started successfully, but its sales fell, and Jane Loudon resigned a few years later, though she continued writing other works on horticulture and gardening, especially for the use of ladies. - Traces of old mounting on the verso and some light foxing.
