This antique chromolithograph was made in 1903 for William Robinson, an Irish gardener and journalist whose ideas about wild gardening spurred the movement that led to the popularising of the English cottage garden.
It's an original antique which is over 100 years old, not a reproduction. It was made on strong, thick paper which has a creamy color and is blank on reverse. Excellent condition. Colors nice and strong.
