Antique Botanical Illustrations Appraisal

George Luthy Botanical Garden Flower Illustrations Print Framed (Set of 2)

This item is a set of two framed botanical flower illustrations. Each print depicts a vibrant bouquet of flowers. The print on the left features light-colored blossoms, likely peonies or hydrangeas, intermingled with red flowers and green foliage. The print on the right showcases a cluster of darker, richer-colored flowers, possibly dahlias and asters, in shades of red, purple, and yellow with dominant green leaves. Both illustrations are characterized by a soft, almost watercolor-like appearance, suggesting a print on paper or a similar textile-like material. The prints are housed in matching rectangular frames, which appear to be constructed from wood with a light, possibly distressed or painted finish, resembling a 'shabby chic' aesthetic or possibly imitating a natural rattan or bamboo texture. Given the 'George Luthy' attribution in the title, these are likely reproductions or prints of original works by George Luthy. The overall condition appears good from the visible imagery, with no obvious signs of significant damage, tears, or discoloration on the prints themselves. The frames also appear intact, though minor wear consistent with age and handling might be present. The specific style points to a potentially mid-20th century to contemporary period, aligning with decorative botanical art, and the craftsmanship of the frames suggests mass production for home decor. The quality indicators point to decorative art suitable for a variety of interior settings.
