🌸 Lindenia Gand [Belgium]: Impr. F. Meyer-van Loo, 1885-1906. Original source Image description: Historical botanical illustration of the orchid Laeliocattleya x Pringiersi, featuring two large, detailed flowers in shades of light pink and deep magenta. The petals are ruffled with delicate veining, and the central labellum is a vibrant, frilled magenta with yellow and red striations. Broad, smooth green leaves accompany the flowers, attached to a sturdy stem. The image is set against a plain cream background, emphasizing the orchid’s intricate form and coloration. Printed in Belgium between 1885-1906 by F. Meyer-van Loo, it showcases both artistic and scientific attention to detail typical of 19th-century botanical art.
