About the Item

Title: 1897 Botanical Prints – Purple Toadflax and Maurandya Barclayana This pair of original 1897 botanical prints features 'purple toadflax' (Linaria bipartita) and 'Maurandya Barclayana', showcasing the elegance and precision of Victorian botanical illustration. Published in *Favourite Flowers of Garden and Greenhouse*, these works capture the natural beauty of climbing and flowering plants in vibrant color and detail. In more detail: 1. Purple toadflax (Linaria bipartita) - Common names: Moroccan toadflax, baby snapdragon - Interesting fact: This fast-growing annual produces vibrant purple and lavender flowers and is often used in cottage gardens or as a filler plant due to its delicate, upright growth habit. 2. Maurandya barclayana - Common names: trailing snapdragon, climbing snapdragon - Interesting fact: Native to Mexico, this twining climber is known for its elegant trumpet-shaped flowers in shades of purple, pink, or white, making it a popular choice for trellises, arches, and walls in warmer climates. These two plants are cherished for their graceful appearance and versatility in gardens, beautifully captured in these Victorian-era botanical prints. The purple toadflax plate depicts slender stems adorned with clusters of pink, purple, and yellow blossoms, delicately rendered to show their soft texture and intricate floral forms. Each bloom stands out against the green stems, providing a lively and colorful composition. The Maurandya Barclayana, a delicate climbing plant, features elegant trumpet-shaped flowers in deep purple hues, surrounded by lush, trailing green leaves and fine tendrils, emphasizing its graceful structure. Both prints remain in excellent condition, with crisp details and vivid colors preserved for over a century. Ideal for framing, they bring vintage botanical charm to any interior, from living spaces to galleries or offices. Perfect for antique print collectors, gardeners, or admirers of 19th-century botanical art, these pieces celebrate the timeless artistry and scientific fascination with flowering plants.
