Set of 3 Antique Fern Prints, Aspidium Pubescens, Elongatum, Dilatatum (c.1865)
This exquisite set of three antique fern lithographs showcases Aspidium Pubescens (Soft Shield Fern), Aspidium Elongatum (Elongated Shield Fern), and Aspidium Dilatatum (Broad Buckler Fern), all presented with rich botanical detail. These prints were published as part of Edward Joseph Lowe’s *Ferns: British and Exotic*, originally issued between 1856 and 1860. Created through a delicate lithographic process, these hand-colored prints capture the vibrancy of each fern species.
Lowe’s work is celebrated for its detailed depictions of ferns and the refined coloration, making each print highly desirable among collectors of antique botanical art. These 19th-century lithographs are ideal for collectors or those looking to decorate with nature-inspired art. The prints have a soft, cream-colored background, highlighting the striking green hues of the ferns.
