About the Item

Title: 1897 Botanical Prints – Calceolaria Hybrida, Rugosa, and Alonsoa Description: This set of three original 1897 botanical prints features the herbaceous calceolaria (Calceolaria hybrida), calceolaria rugosa, and Alonsoa incisifolia. Published in *Favourite Flowers of Garden and Greenhouse*, these finely detailed illustrations reflect the artistry and precision of Victorian botanical studies, capturing the vibrant forms and textures of these ornamental plants. In more detail: 1. Herbaceous calceolaria (Calceolaria hybrida) - Common names: slipper flower, pocketbook flower - Interesting fact: Known for its distinctive pouch-like blooms in vivid red and yellow, this plant was a Victorian favorite for adding a splash of bold color to conservatories and indoor displays. 2. Calceolaria rugosa - Common names: yellow slipper flower, showy slipperwort - Interesting fact: This hardy variety produces clusters of bright yellow blooms on compact plants, often used as bedding or in rock gardens. Its cheerful flowers are a magnet for pollinators like bees. 3. Alonsoa incisifolia - Common names: mask flower - Interesting fact: This charming plant, native to South America, is celebrated for its bright orange-red flowers that bloom profusely, making it a favorite in borders and containers. These vibrant botanical prints capture the elegance and unique beauty of these ornamental plants, offering timeless appeal for collectors and gardeners alike. The herbaceous calceolaria print showcases its striking red and yellow pouch-like flowers, with detailed patterns that make each bloom unique. The calceolaria rugosa features clusters of bright yellow blossoms perched on lush green stems and textured leaves, a plant admired for its cheerful and hardy appearance. The Alonsoa incisifolia plate highlights slender stems topped with vivid orange-red flowers, rendered with meticulous detail to emphasize their intricate petals and budding forms. All three prints are in excellent condition, with vivid colors and sharp lines beautifully preserved for over a century. Perfect for framing, they make an elegant addition to any home, gallery, or office. Ideal for antique botanical print collectors, gardeners, or lovers of vintage decor, these works celebrate the natural beauty of these exquisite flowering plants and showcase the timeless craftsmanship of Victorian botanical illustration.
