A single beetroot-red frond, nature-printed from a real specimen in the 1850s and reproduced as a framed print ready to hang.

About the original

In 1859 and 1860 William Grosart Johnstone and Alexander Croall published The Nature-Printed British Sea-Weeds. Its plates were made by Henry Bradbury's nature-printing process: real seaweed specimens were pressed into soft metal to make the printing plates, so every frond and fibre was captured true to life. The result looks almost like a pressed specimen on the page. We've reproduced the full plate, original lettering included, on a soft cream mount.

Made for your wall

  • Printed on heavyweight 200gsm matte paper with a smooth, non-reflective finish
  • Solid pine frame in white, natural wood or black
  • Shatterproof acrylic front, so it's safe for kitchens, bathrooms and children's rooms
  • Arrives ready to hang, with the hanging kit included
  • Two sizes: 30 × 40 cm and 45 × 60 cm

Each print is made to order for you. It's a lovely gift for anyone who loves the sea or botanical art, and the clean, pale background suits modern and Scandi-style rooms. They look well hung as a pair or a set of three.
