Antique Hand-Colored Fern Prints - Aspidium Filix-Mas Series, Botanical Art 1868
Located in Langweer, NL
Antique Hand-Colored Fern Prints - Aspidium Species - 19th Century Botanical Art
This rare set of three hand-colored fern prints features detailed illustrations of various species of **Aspidium**. These botanical prints are part of the renowned 19th-century collection, *Ferns: British and Exotic*, showcasing the meticulous botanical artistry of the Victorian period.
The ferns illustrated in this set include:
- **Aspidium augustescens** (Majestic Shield Fern): This species is known for its symmetrical fronds and graceful appearance. The print showcases the fine detailing of the fern’s structure, capturing the natural elegance of its leaves.
- **Aspidium acuminatum** (Pointed Shield Fern): This species is noted for its sharply pointed fronds and dense arrangement of sori (spore clusters). The print emphasizes the intricate texture of the fronds and the distinct shape of the reproductive structures.
- **Aspidium proliferum** (Proliferous Shield Fern): This fern is characterized by its broad fronds and ability to produce multiple offshoots. The illustration captures the density and lush growth habit of the species, with precise attention to the arrangement of the spore clusters.
These prints come from E.J. Lowe’s famous botanical work, *Ferns: British and Exotic*, which was published between 1856 and 1860. Edward Joseph Lowe was a distinguished Victorian botanist known for his extensive research and beautifully illustrated publications on ferns. His work remains highly regarded for its scientific accuracy and aesthetic quality.
The prints were produced using the chromolithography technique, a popular 19th-century printing method that allowed for vibrant, multi-layered color reproduction. This process adds depth and dimension to the prints, creating lifelike images that make these ferns appear almost tangible.
Each print measures approximately 12 x 8 inches, making them perfect for framing. Whether you are a botanical art collector, a nature lover, or someone who appreciates vintage prints, this set offers both historical significance and decorative appeal.
Condition Report: Overall good condition with light age-related toning around the edges. The colors remain vibrant, and the images are clear and sharp.

1862 Chromolithograph of Cana – Biblical Landscape in Southern Lebanon
Located in Langweer, NL
Title: 19th-Century Chromolithograph of Cana – Biblical Landscape After David Roberts
Description: This striking 19th-century chromolithograph presents a breathtaking view of Cana, the site traditionally associated with Jesus' first miracle—the transformation of water into wine at a wedding feast. The print originates from the 1862 publication *De Middelaar God en der Menschen - Tafereelen uit Jezus' Leven en Werk op Aarde* by J.J.L. Ten Kate, published by Gebroeders Kraay in Amsterdam. The composition is based on an original plate by the esteemed British artist David Roberts (1796–1864), whose highly detailed and atmospheric depictions of the Holy Land remain among the most celebrated travel illustrations of the 19th century.
The scene captures a dramatic and expansive view of the rolling hills and fertile valleys surrounding Cana, bathed in the warm glow of the setting sun. The interplay of light and shadow enhances the landscape’s depth, creating a peaceful yet awe-inspiring atmosphere. In the foreground, a small group of figures rests near a stone well, symbolizing the region’s historical connection to water and its biblical significance. To the right, a caravan of travelers on horseback winds its way down a rugged path, emphasizing the area's continued role as a crossroads of pilgrimage and trade. In the distance, the smoke rising from the village adds a human presence to the otherwise untouched landscape.
The chromolithographic process used in this print allows for exceptional tonal variation and soft gradations of color, making it a fine example of 19th-century craftsmanship. This piece is particularly appealing to collectors of biblical art, historical views of the Holy Land, and 19th-century travel prints...

50.5 x 62 (without the frame)
Signed in the circle lower right
Born near Glasgow in Scotland, Walter Shirlaw settled with his family in New York in 1841, when he was two or three years old. As a young boy, he took night classes at the National Academy of Design, and first exhibited his work there in 1861. The first years of his career were spent as an engraver at the American Bank-Note Company, while at the same time attempting to establish himself as a painter.
He later moved to Chicago, where he continued to work as an banknote engraver and also taught art at the Chicago Academy of Design. In 1870, at the relatively late age of thirty-two, Shirlaw travelled to Europe to study. Prevented from settling in Paris by the Franco-Prussian War, he instead studied in Munich, where he joined the small group of American painters working in the city, including Frank Duveneck and William Merrit Chase...
