Framed Vanda Teres Andersonii Orchid Print

Native to northeastern India, Vanda Teres Andersonii orchids were featured on plate 475 of The Orchid Album. Co-written by British botanist Robert Warner, illustrated by John Nugent Fitch, and published in London in 1893, this periodical set the standard for orchid description and illustration in the late 19th century when orchid mania was at its height. This beautiful Framed Vanda Teres Andersonii Orchid Print is an archival giclée reproduction of that striking Vanda Teres Andersonii plate. Conservation-quality double matting, wood frame and glass front. Full story on back. Wire hanging hardware included. Made in the U.S.A.  25.25"h. x 21.5"w. x 1.25"d.
