About the Item
"Victorian Geranium Elegance: A Triptych of Horticultural Art"
**Description:**
This exquisite collection of antique botanical prints showcases the Geranium species, a timeless favorite among garden enthusiasts and art collectors alike. Originating from the esteemed publication "Favourite Flowers of Garden and Greenhouse" by Edward Step, published in 1896, each piece in this trio presents a different Geranium variety with scientific precision and artistic finesse.
1. **Oak-Leaf Geranium (Pelargonium Graveolens)** - Admire the delicate pink blossoms arranged in a perfect cluster, complemented by deeply lobed, oak-like foliage.
2. **Ivy-Leaved Geranium (Pelargonium L'atrepes)** - A cascade of vibrant red blooms that appear to spill over the lush, ivy-shaped leaves.
3. **Zonal Geranium (Pelargonium Zonale and Hybrids)** - Rich, fiery red petals stand out against the striking zonal markings on the leaves, a hallmark of this geranium type.
The prints are original lithographs that have been skillfully hand-colored, a technique that was the pinnacle of printmaking at the turn of the 20th century. Each print captures the essence of the plant with exceptional detail, making them a perfect set for connoisseurs of botanical illustration and Victorian era art.
As a cherished artifact from the Victorian era, this set not only adorns the space it occupies but also serves as a conversation starter, offering a glimpse into the meticulous craftsmanship and botanical knowledge of the past. These prints are ideal for bringing the elegance of antique horticultural art into homes, offices, or any space that appreciates the fusion of science and art.
