About This Design

Mark Catesby: White Magnolia Antique Botanical Poster

Mark Catesby: White Magnolia Antique Botanical Poster

The background colour is customisable. Both images in this collage have interesting histories. The engraving of the Magnolia was done for Mark Catesby's 1747 " Natural History of Florida, Carolina and the Bahama Islands," the first book on the flora and fauna of North America. The illustration was undertaken by Georg Dionysis Ehret at Catesby's invitation. Unlike Catesby, Ehret never visted North America and relied on samples sent back to Europe by ship. This watercolour actually depicts two different species of magnolia - the leaf of the cucumber tree (Magnolia acuminata) with the flower of the sweet bay (Magnolia virginiana) - suggesting that specimens had become separated en route from Virginia to England and were then incorrectly matched up in the final the etched plate.

I originally ordered this print in a larger size but was not pleased with the clarity of it. When I contacted Zazzle, they responded really quickly and were very helpful. I was able to reorder the print in a smaller size and it was shipped to me within a couple of weeks. The print was packaged well to ensure there was no damage during transit (Eco friendly, too!), and I am really pleased with it. I am so grateful to the customer service team for the professional way they handled my order. I had this printed on matt finish card and I was really pleased with the quality. The colours were rich and the image sharp.
