<blockquote>
During the 1860s, Lambdin focused on the study and painting of roses in vases, arrangements, or against stark backgrounds. These works were reproduced in prints and distributed by Louis Prang & Co., making Lambdin a sensation along the East coast. [http://www.questroyalfineart.com/artist/george-c-lambdin]
