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.

Located in Langweer, NL
"Botanical Elegance: A Triptych of Garden and Greenhouse Splendors"
Delight in the timeless allure of nature with our exquisite set of three original antique prints, "Botanical Elegance: A Triptych of Garden and Greenhouse Splendors". Culled from the esteemed 1896 publication "Favourite Flowers of Garden and Greenhouse" by Edward Step, these botanical illustrations epitomize the pinnacle of Victorian floral artistry.
Each print showcases a different beloved species, rendered in precise detail and subtle hues. The selection includes the stately Hybrid Larkspur (Delphinium), the charming Larkspurs (Delphinium ajacis and Delphinium orientale), and the enchanting Columbines (Aquilegia vulgaris, Aquilegia chrysantha, and Aquilegia formosa), all depicted in their natural size to capture their true beauty.
These prints are not mere reproductions; they are original works from the late 19th century, utilizing lithography—a technique that was the height of printing technology at the time. The meticulous hand-coloring applied after the initial printing process brings out the vibrant yet delicate colors of these florals, making each piece unique.
