Description: Antique botany print of Bulbine Cepacea, a flowering plant in the genus Bulbine endemic to South Africa, the Western Cape province. This print originates from 'Curtis's botanical magazine'.

Artists and Engravers: Curtis's Botanical Magazine is the longest running botanical periodical featuring colour illustrations of plants. Curtis's Botanical Magazine has been published continuously since 1787, although there have been several series within the overall sequence. From 1984 to 1994 the magazine appeared under the title of The Kew Magazine. In 1995 the publication returned to its roots and the historical and popular name Curtis's Botanical Magazine again took precedence.

Condition: Good, general age-related toning. Blank verso, minor wear. Please study image carefully.
