1897 Colourful Decorative Botanical Prints – Gentianella and Phlox Subulata

About the Item

Title: 1897 Botanical Prints – Gentianella and Phlox Subulata Description: This pair of original 1897 botanical prints features gentianella (Gentiana acaulis) and moss phlox (Phlox subulata and varieties), published in 'Favourite Flowers of Garden and Greenhouse'. These finely detailed illustrations highlight the natural beauty and structure of these beloved flowering plants, reflecting the artistic precision of Victorian botanical studies. The gentianella print showcases its rich blue trumpet-shaped flowers and deep green foliage, a symbol of alpine elegance and natural wonder. The detailed floral anatomy demonstrates the meticulous craftsmanship involved in these works. In contrast, the phlox plate depicts a cluster of soft lavender and pale purple blooms, set against the intricate greenery and root systems, capturing the plant's ground-covering beauty and versatility in gardens. Both prints remain in excellent condition with vivid colors and clear lines, preserved remarkably well over more than a century. Ideal for framing and display, they bring timeless botanical charm to any home, office, or gallery space. Perfect for antique print collectors, garden enthusiasts, or lovers of vintage decor, these works celebrate the enduring appeal of gentian and phlox while offering a glimpse into 19th-century botanical artistry and exploration.
