100 Flowers Postcards

Royal Horticultural Society

Elegant postcards showcasing a treasure-trove of botanical art, carefully selected from the superlative collection of the Society’s Lindley Library and archives. With 100 floral details, spanning botanical art from the 17th to 20th centuries, the postcards are a colourful collection (with one sepia-tone engraving) of single specimens, posies, and botanical groupings. Mixing imagery by botanical art’s great names: Elizabeth Blackwell (1699-1758), Christian Gottlieb Geissler (1729-1814), Margaret Meen (1749-1824), Lilian Snelling (1879-1972), Graham Stuart Thomas (1909-2003), and engravings from botanical anthologies by Robert Sweet (1782-1835). With tulips, roses, crocuses, lilies, orchids, rhododendrons, and more; seasonal British flowers mingle with exotic specimens. Presented in a handsome storage box, with a helpful ribbon tab to help lift out the cards, each card includes an informative caption and blank space for your message and postal address. Elevate your shopping lists or notes; send to friends and family; or frame as a changing seasonal display. The cards are sure to delight any plant lover and make a beautiful gift.
