Antique Botanical Print of Wild Flowers, 1914 John Sowerby Silver Hair Grass, Holy Grass, Hand-Coloured Flower Plate (1501 to 1520)This beautifull hand coloured botanical plate is from a book on British wild flowers illustrated by John Sowerby. This plated being from an edition published in 1914. These plates were all hand finished in colour. A very time consuming job I would imagine. There is a page of text that will accompany this print that describes each of the 20 plants. The size of page is approx. 9. 5 x 6. 1 inches. As with all old prints there may be minor imperfections.
