Assorted botanical prints

Bromeliads, Stapelias and Aloes

By Van Houtte, Curtis and others

Occasionally we buy sets of prints someone has collected. Here is one of the best collections we've found as it features plants people like to collect to this day, by some of the best print makers of the 17th and 18th centuries.

Some of the images (e.g. pineapple) show the print with a matt which comes free with if you buy the print.
