19th-Century British Hand-Colored Deutzia Lithograph
A luminous 19th-century British botanical lithograph capturing the delicate double blooms of Deutzia crenata flore-pleno. Creamy white flowers emerge with botanical precision against lush green foliage, their softness heightened by the hand-coloring technique.
Printed by F. Waller at 18 Hatton Garden in London, a workshop documented in museum records as a center for fine botanical lithography from the 1860's–1880's. The original printer's imprint remains beneath the composition, anchoring its provenance and craftsmanship.
Now freshly framed in an ornate gilt frame with a generous cream mat that honors both the antique print and its botanical subject. The frame's warmth complements the aged patina of the lithograph, creating a refined presence on any wall.
Circa 1860's–1880's. Hand-colored lithograph on paper. London, England. Antique condition with period-appropriate toning and wear consistent with age.
