1871 Botanical Prints of Paeonia and Butomus from Tunbridge Wells Flora
Located in Langweer, NL
1871 Botanical Prints of Paeonia and Butomus from Tunbridge Wells Flora
Offered here is a striking pair of original 19th-century botanical prints from The Flowering Plants of Tunbridge Wells and Neighbourhood by Richard Deakin, published in 1871 by Stidolph & Bellamy and Groombridge & Sons, London. These finely detailed plates depict Paeonia corallina (Coral Peony) and Butomus umbellatus (Flowering Rush), two elegant flowering species native to parts of Europe and found in the Tunbridge Wells region of England.
Rendered with scientific precision and colored by hand, these prints reflect the Victorian era’s passion for botany, natural classification, and the visual arts. Each flower is represented in its full structural form, with careful attention to botanical accuracy, showing stems, leaves, blossoms, and reproductive parts where applicable.
The *Paeonia corallina* features deep crimson petals and vibrant green foliage, while the *Butomus umbellatus* is notable for its light pink clustered blooms atop tall, sinuous stems—its root and bulb details meticulously illustrated alongside. These prints exemplify the dual nature of botanical works of the 19th century: simultaneously scientific documents and refined decorative art.
These plates come from one of the more specialized and regionally focused British botanical publications of the period, making them relatively rare in the market. Their historic link to the Tunbridge Wells flora gives them additional geographic and academic interest.
Condition Report:
Good condition overall. Hand-coloring remains vivid and precise. The paper shows only minor, even toning, appropriate for its age. No significant foxing or tears. Species names are present and clearly legible.
Framing Suggestions:
For the best visual impact and preservation, these prints should be framed in matching frames with archival mats and UV-protective glass. A neutral mount (ivory or pale grey) will complement the organic colors while enhancing their Victorian charm. Ideal for hallways, libraries, studies, or conservatories, especially in botanical or period-themed interiors.

Located in Langweer, NL
The Brooklyn Bridge Over the East River, Between Long Island and New York
Published in The Illustrated London News, June 1883.
The engraving from The Illustrated London News, is from June 1883, shortly after the bridge's completion. The Brooklyn Bridge was completed and opened to the public in May 1883, and engravings and illustrations like this one typically followed soon after its opening.
Description:
This hand-colored engraving, published in June 1883 in The Illustrated London News, commemorates the completion of the Brooklyn Bridge, which opened in May 1883. It captures the newly finished bridge spanning the East River, linking Long Island (Brooklyn) to Manhattan, New York City. The detailed panorama shows the urban landscape with buildings and streets leading to the grand suspension bridge, symbolizing one of the greatest engineering feats of the 19th century.
The bridge's enormous stone towers and suspension cables dominate the skyline, with a picturesque twilight sky framing the background. The engraving emphasizes the bustling waterfront, teeming with ships and ferries, highlighting the role of New York's waterways in commerce and transportation. The scene offers a glimpse into New York's rapidly growing cityscape, depicted with remarkable clarity from a rooftop perspective.
The caption below the engraving reads: The Brooklyn Bridge Over the East River, Between Long Island and New York.
This print, issued in *The Illustrated London News*, reflects the magazine’s dedication to visually documenting historic achievements in architecture and engineering.
---
**About the Publication and Technique:**
*The Illustrated London News*, founded in 1842, was the first illustrated weekly news magazine. Its pages were filled with engravings and illustrations that provided readers with vivid, detailed imagery of major events and landmarks from around the world. In the 19th century, the publication became known for its depictions of architectural and engineering triumphs, like the Brooklyn Bridge.
The engraving was produced using the wood engraving technique, in which artisans carved intricate designs into woodblocks, allowing for mass reproduction in magazines. This specific print is hand-colored, adding a vibrant, artistic quality to the precise wood engraving.
