This image is one of the color lithographs found in the five volume set called "Wildflowers", illustrated by Anne Pratt and published in London between 1855-1866. Pratt has been recognized as an important figure for spreading knowledge and the love of botany at her time.
Artisans working with Derian cut and collage selected imagery onto glass trays, wall plaques and paperweights to create the limited edition pieces that are in this collection.
