c.1886 Studies of Fruit
The c.1886 Studies of Fruit is a vibrant collection of botanical illustrations referencing original late-19th-century American pomological studies. These watercolor paintings were commissioned to meticulously document common fruit varieties, capturing the specific textures and luminous colors of the era’s finest harvests. Digitally restored in our Lancashire studio, we have revived the bright yellows, reds, and greens of the 1886 originals, ensuring these "pictures of distinction" serve as a refreshing focal point for a tastefully decorated kitchen or dining space.
