- A botanist who knew her well described her as follows. "Many people have travelled Amazonian waters, many people have painted Amazonian plants, but Margaret Mee outranks those other travellers and artists simply because she, with her watercolours, went, saw and conquered the region. She has been able to fill her subjects with the reality of their environment."
