Print Camellia Flower Botanical Gilt Frame
It was an exciting time in Europe, when the race to discover new plants and bring new cultivars to a never satiated public was in full swing. Prominent botanists collaborated on many of the seminal works of the day including Verschaffelt’s Nouvelle Iconographie des Camellias, now a very rare work. The lavishly illustrated plates, hand colored or finished lithographs contain a wonderful array of superb camellias blossoms. The drawings are by Bernard Leon and Nat Pinx , printed on stone by G. Severeyns
