About the Item
Hand-Colored Botanical Lithograph of Spruce, Oak, and Currant, Calwer, 1854
This exquisite botanical lithograph is from Carl Georg Calwer’s *Deutschlands Technische Pflanzen* (1854), a celebrated collection of Germany’s industrial and agricultural plants. The artwork features Picea abies (Norway spruce), Quercus robur (oak), and Ribes rubrum (red currant), each meticulously hand-colored to capture their unique botanical features. The Norway spruce, with its iconic cone and needle-like leaves, is a valuable source of timber and resin. The oak, with its lobed leaves and acorns, symbolizes strength and has long been prized for its durable wood and tannin production. The red currant, known for its small, clustered berries, was historically cultivated for its culinary and medicinal applications.
The composition highlights the intricate details of cones, leaves, acorns, and berries, blending artistic craftsmanship with scientific precision. The annotations provide historical and practical insights into the significance of these plants, reflecting their roles in European forestry, agriculture, and trade during the 19th century.
Measuring approximately 24 x 30 cm, this lithograph is a valuable addition to collections of antique botanical art or natural history. Ideal for framing and display, it enhances the aesthetic and educational appeal of libraries, galleries, and studies.
Condition: The print is in excellent condition with minimal foxing and light edge wear. The hand-applied colors are vivid and well-preserved, and the intricate details remain sharp and clear, making it a striking historical piece.
