About the Item

Morning Glories with Butterfly - Giacomelli’s Nature Print, Circa 1891 This enchanting print, titled "Les Volubilis" (The Morning Glories), beautifully captures the delicate interaction between flora and fauna, a hallmark of Hector Giacomelli’s work. The scene depicts vibrant morning glory flowers in full bloom, their soft purple hues standing out against lush green foliage. A striking butterfly, with its wings spread open, flutters nearby, adding a touch of life and movement to the serene garden setting. Hector Giacomelli (1822–1904) was a renowned French watercolorist, engraver, and illustrator, widely celebrated for his detailed and lifelike depictions of birds and flowers. His work is admired for its intricate attention to detail and his ability to bring the beauty of nature to life on paper. This print is a *Farbdruck* (color print), likely produced using the chromolithography process, a popular technique in the late 19th and early 20th centuries. This method allowed for the vivid colors of the morning glories and the butterfly to be rendered with remarkable clarity and depth, creating a visually striking image. Created around 1900, this print is part of a series by Giacomelli that explores the natural world, focusing on the harmonious relationship between plants and animals. The print measures approximately 32 by 23.5 cm, with wide white borders that have naturally aged, showing some browning and slight staining typical of prints from this period. This print was likely published in France, where Giacomelli spent most of his life and where his work was widely appreciated. As with other works in this series, "Les Volubilis" was likely produced in a limited edition, making it a treasured piece for collectors of vintage botanical and ornithological art. The exact number of prints produced is not specified, but its age and the reputation of the artist contribute to its value. The print is in good condition, with the central image retaining its vibrancy despite some natural aging around the borders. The detailed depiction of the morning glories and butterfly remains clear and engaging, showcasing Giacomelli’s skill in capturing the subtle beauty of nature. This print is a charming example of Giacomelli's work, perfect for collectors or enthusiasts of vintage nature art. Its depiction of blooming flowers and the fluttering butterfly, combined with its historical significance, makes it a cherished addition to any art collection.
