All carefully illustrated for both their beauty and scientific accuracy, these four prints reflect the Victorian passion for cataloging and understanding Great Britain's natural world. The artistry is not just in the hand colored illustrations themselves, but there was craftsmanship in Victorian botanical publishing as well.

Professionally presented together in a long frame, these prints are protected with acid free materials. All taken from one of the period's most beloved botanical publications make it a great acquisition for collectors of antique prints, botanical art, and natural history.

Taken from Familiar Wild Flowers, the celebrated natural history work by Reverend F. Edward Hulme. Produced during the late Victorian and early Edwardian period, the print is estimated over a century old, representing a fine example of the era's botanical illustration and publishing traditions still so respected and coveted today. Notice the stippled technique, especially in the 4th.
