About the Item

"Historic Roses: A Victorian Botanical Showcase" Introducing "Historic Roses," a curated selection of three original antique prints from Edward Step's revered publication "Favourite Flowers of Garden and Greenhouse" (1896). This collection is a celebration of the intricate art of chromolithography, a pioneering printing technique of the Victorian era renowned for its rich and accurate colors. 1. **Tea Rose - 'Gloire de Dijon':** Admire the subtle gradation of colors from the tender blush to deep crimson, capturing the essence of the Tea Rose's classic bloom. 2. **Wrinkled Rose (Rosa Rugosa):** The robust beauty of the Wrinkled Rose, with its vivid petals and ripe hips, is immortalized in striking detail, evoking a sense of enduring charm. 3. **Dropwort (Spiraea Filipendula):** Delicate in form yet vibrant in its presentation, the Dropwort illustration highlights the feathery foliage and clustered blooms with scientific precision and artistic flair. These prints are not merely reproductions but historical artifacts, offering an authentic slice of horticultural history. Edward Step's work stands as a monumental contribution to botanical literature, bringing together the dual disciplines of botany and art with exceptional mastery. Each print measures at the natural size, maintaining the integrity and scale as intended in the original work. Perfect for collectors, enthusiasts of botany, and connoisseurs of vintage art, "Historic Roses" invites you to own a piece of the golden age of botanical illustration. Display them as a triptych to create a focal point in any room or present them individually to spread the allure throughout your space.
