Linden - 6 Orchid Prints
This remarkable orchid lithograph is from Jean Linden's Lindenia: Iconographie des Orchidees. The work was published Belgium between 1885 and 1894 at the height of Belgium’s “orchid fever” or “orchidelerium.” The chromolithographs were printed by some of the best botanical lithographs of the time including Severeyns and De Pannemaeker after the work of Alfred Goosen and others.
Lindenia was one of the most important publications on orchids featuring stunning, high quality color plates. Linden travelled extensively finding over 1100 species of orchids and importing them to Belgium for cultivation. He founded a nursery in Brussels with his son and published Lindenia. Linden’s research and findings revolutionized the cultivation of orchids in Europe.
