UnknownFlowering Plant Paintings: A Pair of Framed Original Botanical Watercolors
About the Item
This is a pair of framed original one-of-a-kind watercolor paintings of flowering plants entitled "Monandria Monogymia, Costus Speciosus" and "Tetrandria Monogynia, Ixorci Stricta" by an anonymous artist.
This striking and detailed pair of framed watercolor botanical paintings are presented in identical gold-colored wood frames with cream-colored mats and gold-colored fillets. They are glazed with UV conservation glass. Each of the frames measures 21.5" high, 19.25" wide and 1" deep. The watercolors are painted on very thin Japanese or India paper, which have some wrinkling due in part to the nature of the production and the mounting on a backing of this kind of very thin paper. The paintings are otherwise in very good condition.
Monandria is a class of flowers with one stamen. Cheilocostus speciosus, also know as crêpe ginger, is in the family Costaceae. It is native to southeast Asia and surrounding regions, from India to China to Queensland and Indonesia. It has also been cultivated in Puerto Rico, Mauritius, Réunion, Fiji, Hawaii, Costa Rica, Belize, Melanesia, Micronesia, and the West Indies, mainly for its ornamental beauty and for its medicinal uses. It has been used to treat fever, rash, asthma, bronchitis, kidney and other urinary problems, as and intestinal worms. It is mentioned in the Kama Sutra as an ingredient in a cosmetic to be used on the eyelashes to increase sexual attractiveness.
Tetrandria is a class of flowers with four stamens. Ixorci Stricta, also known as Ixora chinensis, is native to Southeast China, Indo-China and the Philippines. Although native to the tropical and subtropical areas throughout the world, it is most common in tropical Asia. It also grows commonly in subtropical climates in the United States, such as Florida where it is commonly known as West Indian jasmine. It is used as a medicine, environmental uses and for food.

Tuko-See-Mathla, A Seminole Chief: A Hand-colored McKenney & Hall Lithograph
By McKenney & Hall
Located in Alamo, CA
This is an original 19th century hand-colored McKenney and Hall lithograph of a Native American entitled "Tuko-See-Mathla, A Seminole Chief, No. 106", published by Rice, Rutter & Co. in 1865. For his portrait, painted by Charles Bird King, Tuko-See-Mathla wore a colorful outfit, primarily of red and blue with tassels and a matching headdress, a necklace including his presidential peace medal, two metallic bands on each arm, beautiful high moccasin boots and he carries a rifle. He appears to be standing in a desert landscape.
This original beautifully hand-colored McKenney and Hall lithograph is presented in a cream colored mat (adhered at the top), suitable for framing with a protective clear sleeve. The mat measures 13.88" x 11.75" and the sheet measures 10.63" x 7.38. There is one tiny spot in the lower portion of the left and right margins and minimal discoloration at the left and right edges (obscured by the mat), but the print is otherwise in excellent condition.

He was one of a very few government officials to defend American Indian interests and attempt to preserve their culture. He travelled to Indian lands meeting the Native American leaders. He brought with him an accomplished artist, James Otto Lewis...
