Hand-Colored Botanical Litho of Nicotiana Tabacum and Nicotiana Rustica, 1854

About the Item

Hand-Colored Botanical Lithograph of Nicotiana Tabacum and Nicotiana Rustica, 1854 This striking hand-colored botanical lithograph is from Carl Georg Calwer’s 'Deutschlands Technische Pflanzen' (1854), a seminal work on Germany’s technical plants. The illustration features Nicotiana tabacum and Nicotiana rustica, two species of tobacco celebrated for their agricultural and commercial importance. With their intricate flowers, broad leaves, and detailed stems, these plants are rendered with exceptional precision and vibrant hand-applied colors, highlighting the botanical artistry of the 19th century. Nicotiana tabacum, commonly cultivated for smoking and chewing, and Nicotiana rustica, known for its high nicotine content and ceremonial uses, are iconic plants that played a crucial role in trade and economy during the era. The scientific annotations and structural details provide not only visual appeal but also an educational insight into their characteristics and utility. This lithograph is in very good condition, showing minimal signs of foxing and edge wear consistent with its age. Colors remain vivid, and the details are sharp, making it a prime example of mid-19th-century botanical illustration. This rare original print is perfect for collectors, educators, or anyone seeking a unique piece of botanical art. Condition: The print is in very good condition with light foxing and faint edge wear. Colors are vibrant, and the paper is well-preserved, displaying crisp detail.
