Description
A Bird of Paradise flower dominates the composition with its striking orange and red petals splayed upward like a tropical crown, flanked by broad gray-green leaves that frame the bloom with architectural precision. The hand-colored botanical illustration captures the plant against a soft landscape background, rendered in the naturalistic style of early 19th-century scientific art with careful attention to form, shadow, and delicate gradations of color. Printed on smooth white card stock and made to order, artwork on the front, blank inside, envelopes included in every set. A handwritten note that arrives as an independent artist's work.
