1897 Antique Botanical Prints – Cornflower, Immortelle, Canterbury Bells

About the Item

Title: 1897 Antique Botanical Prints – Cornflower, Immortelle, Canterbury Bells Description: This set of three original botanical prints from 1897 features "Mountain Cornflower" (Centaurea montana), "Annual Immortelle" (Xeranthemum annuum), and "Canterbury Bells" (Campanula medium). Published in 'Favourite Flowers of Garden and Greenhouse', these stunning illustrations are a testament to Victorian botanical artistry, capturing the beauty and structure of these timeless garden favorites. Each plate offers vivid detail and naturalistic color, showcasing the plants’ unique characteristics – the spiky elegance of the blue cornflower, the delicate rose-hued immortelle, and the vibrant pink and white Canterbury bells. The finely drawn floral parts, including petals and stamens, reflect scientific precision and artistic finesse, making these prints both educational and decorative. The condition is remarkable for their age, with colors still bright and clear. These prints are ideal for framing, adding vintage charm to a study, living room, or gallery wall. For collectors of antique botanical art, nature enthusiasts, or lovers of historical decor, this trio offers a glimpse into a time when natural beauty was meticulously documented and celebrated. Whether displayed together or separately, these works evoke the elegance of the 19th century and a passion for the botanical world.
