A collection of her paintings of Great Barrier Island plants was published in 1983. Early lifeAt the age of six Osborne moved with her parents and 12 siblings to Great Barrier Island, about {{Convert|90|km|abbr=on}} to the north-east of Auckland. Osborne's parents began cattle farming at Rosalie Bay in the south of the island. Growing up in such an isolated location was challenging, but Osborne's mother Emilie recognised artistic talents in her daughter at an early stage. She married Joe Osborne in 1874; they settled at Tryphena at the southern end of Great Barrier Island and commenced raising a family of 13 children. CareerAs Osborne did not date her paintings it is not known when she commenced painting the indigenous plants of Great Barrier Island. However, over a period of some decades her work reached the highest quality and is now greatly appreciated from both artistic and scientific points of view.[1] Her paintings of the Adams mistletoe (Trilepidia adamsii) are particularly important as this species is now considered extinct, and no colour photographs of it exist. A collection of her paintings of Great Barrier Island plants was published[2] in 1983 by Jeanne Goulding of the Auckland Museum, whose botany department holds the largest collection of Osborne's works. DeathOsborne died in Auckland on 12 March 1934 and is buried on Great Barrier Island.[1] References1. ^1 2 {{DNZB|last=Mackle|first=Tony|id=2o10|title=Fanny Osborne|accessdate=23 April 2017}} {{Use dmy dates|date=April 2017}}{{authority control}}{{DEFAULTSORT:Osborne, Fanny}}{{NewZealand-painter-stub}}2. ^{{Cite book|url=https://www.worldcat.org/oclc/11303461|title=Fanny Osborne's Flower Paintings|last=Goulding|first=Jeanne H.|date=1983|publisher=Heinemann|year=|isbn=0868633968|location=Exeter, New Hampshire|pages=|oclc=11303461}} 5 : 1852 births|1934 deaths|People from Auckland|19th-century New Zealand painters|20th-century New Zealand painters |
