Pair of framed botanical flower prints
Estimated Value
$50-$150 for the pair
A matched pair of framed botanical prints featuring delicate hand-colored style floral illustrations. The left print is labeled "Phlox" and the right appears to be labeled "Polianthes" or a similar botanical name. Each print is centered on a cream field with layered pink border matting and set within a green marbled background and gold-toned frame. The style evokes antique botanical plate illustrations, but the overall presentation suggests later decorative reproductions rather than original 18th- or 19th-century engravings. The frames are substantial and decorative, likely intended for interior display.

Authenticity Score
Low to Medium; the prints have an antique-inspired look, but the framing, matting, and print quality suggest modern or later reproduction rather than original antique botanical plates
Provenance
Likely decorative wall art from a home decor collection, possibly inspired by antique botanical illustration plates. No maker's mark, publisher information, or date is visible in the image, so provenance cannot be determined confidently.
Historical Significance
Botanical prints have a long history in scientific illustration and decorative arts, especially in the 18th and 19th centuries. This pair reflects that tradition, though likely as later reproductions intended for decorative use rather than scholarly botanical documentation.
