Lithograph hand watercolored. Belongs to the Series "Atlante di Botanica popolare ossia Illustrazione di Piante Notevoli di ogni famiglia" (Atlas of popular botany or illustration of notable plants of each family), published in Napoli, by Raimondo Petrajola, in 1872/76. This is the first edition of a popular suite illustrating in a clear and beautiful way the different species of plants. Very good condition except for some foxing.
