About the Item

Trio of Antique Botanical Saxifrage Prints: Creeping Sailor, London Pride, and Thick-Leaved Saxifrage This charming set of three antique botanical prints features meticulously detailed depictions of saxifrage plants: "Creeping Sailor" (Saxifraga Sarmentosa), "London Pride" (Saxifraga Umbrosa and Saxifraga Huetii), and "Thick-Leaved Saxifrage" (Saxifraga Crassifolia). The Creeping Sailor, with its delicate pink-tinted flowers and sprawling stems, adds a touch of whimsy and grace to the collection. London Pride is a vibrant piece that combines small clusters of golden-yellow flowers with lush green foliage, reflecting its historic association with resilience and adaptability. Finally, the Thick-Leaved Saxifrage presents a striking combination of large, glossy leaves and soft pink blossoms, an ode to its hardy yet elegant nature. These prints highlight the intricate beauty of the saxifrage family, showcasing the skill of vintage botanical illustrators who balanced scientific accuracy with artistic appeal. Perfect for any botanical or vintage-inspired decor, they bring timeless natural charm to any space. Condition Summary: Prints are in excellent vintage condition with minor patina adding character. Borders are intact with minimal wear. Ready for framing. Framing Tips: Opt for soft beige or pale green matting to complement the earthy tones. For a classic look, pair with gold or dark wood frames. Alternatively, use light oak or white frames for a modern botanical gallery aesthetic.
