About the Item

Common Wall Spleenwort Ferns – Pair of Victorian Botanical Prints, 1873 This harmonious pair presents two variations of the common wall spleenwort, shown with delicately segmented fronds and precise botanical structure. The prints complement each other through scale and form, offering visual cohesion while maintaining individual interest. Produced in 1873, these engravings exemplify the refined educational illustrations that made Anne Pratt’s work so popular among Victorian readers and collectors. The subtle coloration and elegant negative space give the set a calm, refined presence, well suited to interiors focused on texture and natural detail rather than bold color. As a matched pair, these prints are particularly attractive for collectors seeking authenticity combined with strong decorative value, making them ideal for hallways, studies, or curated gallery walls. Condition: Minor edge toning and faint foxing; images remain crisp. Framing tips: Warm off-white mats with slim gilt or dark-stained wood frames. Technique: Hand-colored engraving Maker: Anne Pratt, England, 1873
