This is one of a small grouping that we recently purchased in Paris. It is done by Henry (Henri) Lambert. Lambert created large decorative botanicals that were used as reference for designers, artists and engravers. His work was executed with botanic accuracy and beauty. Lambert also worked in the Sevres porcelain industry where his work on porcelain reflected his influence of flowering botanicals on ceramics. Today his work is auctioned at art galleries throughout the world. This botanical features the lily. The chromolithograph is done in a soft palette of salmon,, white, yellow, and green tones with an off-white tone background. There is a very beautiful quality to the work. Please note that the actual chromolithograph is quite "brilliant" in color which my scan does not show well. The vibrancy of the antique botanical is quite rare! Note too the intricate detail and beautifully designed forms. RARE to find in excellent antique condition and in large size. Numbered and signed in stone by the artist. 11.5 x 17.75 inches. Comes matted in a white 18 x 24 custom mat. Please see other botanicals from this series in our shop. See less
