About the Item
Sea Spleenwort and Green Spleenwort Ferns – Antique Botanical Prints, 1873
Description:
This decorative pair of botanical engravings depicts two closely related British fern species, presented with elegant vertical fronds and finely hand-colored detail. The compositions are well balanced, with one plate offering a broader, fuller plant structure and the other a more upright, architectural silhouette, making them ideal as a coordinated wall pair.
Published in 1873 as part of Anne Pratt’s celebrated botanical series, these prints reflect the Victorian fascination with natural history and domestic botany. The soft green palette, crisp outlines, and subtle shading give the set strong decorative appeal while remaining scientifically accurate. Together, they work beautifully in both traditional and contemporary interiors, particularly where natural tones or organic themes are desired.
Collectors and interior designers alike value paired botanical prints for their visual rhythm and versatility, whether displayed side-by-side above furniture or stacked vertically in narrower wall spaces.
Condition:
Light age toning and minor spotting consistent with age; overall clean and well preserved.
Framing tips:
Ivory or pale sage matting with light oak or natural walnut frames for a fresh, botanical look.
