This bright coloured and detailed chromolithographic print of the Honey Suckle (Lonicera Periclymenum) originates from the first edition (1879) of a series of botanical books called 'Familiar Wild Flowers’ by E. Hulme.

 

This exquisite 145-year-old illustration is in excellent condition and comes with a pre-cut high quality matboard with a white linen top layer. The matboard is acid-free, protecting the print.
