Warm Room: Photographs from Historic Greenhouses by Peter A. Moriarty
Since the 1990s, photographer Peter Moriarty has traveled to greenhouses, orangeries, conservatories, and arboretums to capture the characteristics of these “warm rooms” constructed to preserve and propagate prized plants. From the Royal Botanic Gardens at Kew in England to Longwood Gardens in nearby Kennett Square, Moriarty documents the unique structures and specimens as encountered through his personal, graphic sensibility. He produces traditional gelatin-silver prints that convey the light-filled, atmospheric spaces of historic greenhouses.
