Orchid Schombergkia tibicinis (now Myrmecophila tibicinis) Bateman print.

by Bateman, James

Lovely orchid print, reproduced from a lithograph drawn on stone by Maxime Gauci after the painting by Mrs Augusta Innes Withers, Miss Sarah Ann Drake, or Petrus Schouten, for The Orchidaceae of Mexico & Guatemala by James Bateman (1811-97).

Originally printed by P. Gauci and published in London by J. Ridgway & Sons circa 1837-41, these were some of the finest scientifically accurate orchid nature studies ever produced..

Print size: 740 x 520mm (29 1/8 x 20 1/2 inches).
