Description: The print is of the CAUCASIAN LEOPARD'S-BANE, Doronicum Caucasicum. Sold with original tissue guard. Doronicum orientale, the leopard's bane, is a European plant species in the family Asteraceae. Source: The print is from an 1897 publication of "Favourite Flowers of Garden and Greenhouse" by Edward Step FLS and William Watson FRHS. It was published in London by Frederick Warne and Co. Condition: As the print is over 100 years old the paper will have a patina in keeping with this age. But please examine the photographs, to help ascertain condition, which shows the print you will purchase. Below each print it is recorded the proportion of the illustration to the natural size of the plant. Print size is 6 inches x 9 1/2 inches (15cm x 24cm). The print was produced by a method called 'chromolithography'. This was the most successful metho d of colour printing developed in the 19th century and mostly relied on using several woodblocks with the colours. It did away with the costly and time consuming hand-colouring methods available up to this time. IMPORTANT - The print included in this sale is unmatted / unmounted and unframed. The photo showing the print framed is a representation only. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~ 0053cew1-17211104
