Hand colored antique botanical copperplate engraving from England in very good condition. We are pleased to offer this print of the Fine Leaved Phlox from the Curtis Botanical Magazine first published by William Curtis beginning in 1787. This engraving is Plate # 415, dated August 1, 1798, engraved by F. Sansom. Mr. Curtis was a trained pharmacist living in London, whose greater interest was the study of flora and insects. He maintained a large garden where he grew beautiful exotic plants. Highly collectible, and increasingly hard-to-find in this condition; this botanical engraving still has the original vivid coloration. Guaranteed authentic 206 year-old engraving on rag paper. The original text page will accompany this engraving. Antique engravings are a unique gift idea and make a fine complement to any home or office. Print size is 5 1/2" x 9".
