Victorian Botanical Majesty: Original Lithographs of Peonies and Monkshood, 1896
About the Item
"Victorian Botanical Majesty: Peonies and Monkshood"
Immerse yourself in the grandeur of Victorian horticulture with our majestic collection, "Victorian Botanical Majesty: Peonies and Monkshood". Sourced from the distinguished 1896 anthology "Favourite Flowers of Garden and Greenhouse" by the celebrated botanist Edward Step, this set features the vibrant Common Peony (Paeonia officinalis), the graceful White Peony (Paeonia albiflora), and the striking Monkshood (Aconitum variegatum).
Crafted with the precise and cherished lithographic method of the 19th century, these prints are graced with a level of detail that is almost lifelike. The lithography process, a pinnacle of printing technology of its era, involves creating an image on a flat surface with oil-based ink and then transferring it to paper. The prints are then hand-colored, a testament to the skillful artisanship of the time, providing each illustration with a unique touch and vibrancy that resonates with the beauty of the original blooms.
These botanical illustrations are not just works of art; they are historical artefacts that hark back to a time when the study of flora was both a scientific pursuit and a high art. They represent an era when botanical imagery was a way to bring the wonders of the natural world into the home.
This collection is perfect for those who appreciate the art of botany, the beauty of flowers, and the charm of the Victorian era. The prints will add an air of sophistication and a touch of historical elegance to any space.
