Antique chromo lithograph of the Plum (Prunus Planteriensis), 1902

This colourful and detailed chromolithographic plate of Prunus Planteriensis fl. pl. Sim. L. originates from the 1902 edition of the Wiener Illustrierte Garten-Zeitung, the illustrated Viennese horticultural magazine published by the Austrian Kaiserlich-Königliche Gartenbau-Gesellschaft. 

The magazines were authored and edited by Alfred Burgerstein (1850-1929), a botanist, teacher and and secretary-general of the Gartenbaugesellschaft.

This fine 122 year old plate is in excellent condition and comes with a pre-cut high quality matboard with an indigo / dark blue coloured top layer. The matboard is acid-free, protecting the print.
