About the Item

Title: 1897 Botanical Print – Alpine Forget-Me-Not (Myosotis Alpestris) Description: This original 1897 botanical print features the alpine forget-me-not (*Myosotis alpestris*), an iconic symbol of delicate beauty. Published in *Favourite Flowers of Garden and Greenhouse*, this illustration exemplifies the refined precision and artistry of Victorian botanical studies. The soft blue flowers, detailed leaves, and finely rendered floral anatomy create a timeless depiction of this beloved plant. The alpine forget-me-not is meticulously illustrated with clusters of petite, star-shaped blue blooms adorned with bright yellow centers, gracefully arranged on slender green stems. Accompanying details, such as the bud structure, seed form, and root system, emphasize the scientific accuracy that was central to botanical works of the 19th century. This plant, often associated with remembrance and affection, is a favorite in alpine meadows and cottage gardens. The print is in excellent condition, with vivid colors and sharp lines preserved for over a century. Perfect for framing, it offers a charming and elegant touch to any interior space. Ideal for collectors of antique botanical art, nature enthusiasts, or those seeking vintage decor, this work celebrates both the artistic and scientific fascination with the natural world. A lovely addition to any home or collection.
