1897 Decorative Antique Botanical Prints – Lilac and Persian Lilac

About the Item

1897 Botanical Prints – Lilac and Persian Lilac These two original botanical prints from 1897 feature the lilac (*Syringa vulgaris var. Charles X*) and the Persian lilac (*Syringa persica*). Published in *Favourite Flowers of Garden and Greenhouse*, these detailed illustrations perfectly capture the elegance and charm of these timeless flowering shrubs, celebrated for their fragrance and delicate clusters of blossoms. The lilac print highlights the lush, densely packed pale purple flowers, complemented by broad green leaves. Each petal and bud is meticulously rendered, showcasing the Victorian dedication to botanical accuracy. The Persian lilac, more delicate and airy in form, displays slender branches adorned with soft pinkish-lavender flowers, accompanied by detailed depictions of its unique floral structure. Both prints remain in excellent condition, with their natural colors and crisp details preserved over more than a century. They are ideal for framing and will bring vintage botanical beauty to any room. Perfect for antique print collectors, garden enthusiasts, or admirers of floral decor, these works celebrate the enduring appeal of lilacs, combining scientific precision with artistic elegance in a way that is both decorative and timeless.
