I love this painting by John Dixon Batten. Unfortunately, there are not many of his paintings online.
On a different artist. I saw a copy of, "The Life, Letters and Work of Frederic Leighton" at Project Gutenberg(http://www.gutenberg.org/dirs/3/5/9/3/35935/35935-h/35935-h.htm)which has a raft of b&w images of Leighton paintings that I had never seen before.

I just visited this painting yesterday. It's at the Carnegie Museum of Art in Pittsburgh. It's my favourite in the whole museum, and so much more impressive in person. The detail on the flowers is amazing.
