Pitcairnia tabulaeformis Bromeliad

 William Curtis began publication of the Botanical Magazine in February 1787 and continued almost without interruption for 160 years. After Curtis edited the first 13 volumes, the publication continued under the editors: John Simms (1800-1826), William Jackson Hooker (1827-1865) and Joseph Dalton Hooker (1865-1904). The images were engraved and hand-colored by many artists including Sydenham Edwards, William Graves, James Sowerby, John Curtis, William Jackson Hooker, W.H. Fitch, Matilda Smith, Lillian Snelling and Stella Rose Craig. The plates are known for their fine detail and delicate coloring.

 We are currently offering a selection of prints from the entire third series, with prints dating from 1838 to 1877. They are all illustrations by Walter Hood Fitch, one of the most celebrated and talented botanical illustrators of the Victorian era. During his time, the Curtis Botanical Magazine experienced another heyday. It is a time characterized by the inclusion of many exotic species from Africa, Asia & Australia. Each single is untrimmed, measuring approximately 5 3/4 by 9 1/2 inches. Prints are accompanied by the relevant descriptive text. The condition of these prints is excellent with little or no foxing on strong, thick paper that is still quite white. The photos are very accurate, so please review carefully.
