Antique French Botanical Print J.L. Prévost
Offered here is a beautiful 19th-century French botanical lithograph, hand-colored and signed in the plate by Jean Louis Prévost.
Titled:
“Iris, Roses et Narcisses” (No. 6)
This finely detailed composition features a classic arrangement of iris, roses, and narcissus, rendered in the elegant style of early French botanical illustration. The work reflects the influence of the great natural history artists of the period and was likely produced circa 1830–1850.
