About the Item
Antique Leafy Greens and Wild Plants Prints, Botanical Set, Germany 1852
This four-plate set presents leafy vegetables and wild plants, including cabbage, cauliflower, artichoke, and various field herbs, from Carl Gustav Calwer’s agricultural work published in Stuttgart in 1852. The plates combine cultivated crops with wild-growing species, illustrating the breadth of useful plant life in 19th-century agriculture.
The imagery ranges from dense leafy forms to architectural flower heads, creating strong visual contrast across the set. These plates are among the most decorative in the series, with bold shapes and confident use of color.
This grouping appeals to collectors of botanical illustration as well as interior designers seeking impactful, historically grounded wall decor.
