Orange Lilies

Another lovely botanical print created by the German artistĀ Georg Ehret (1708-1770). Ehret is considered one of the foremost botanical artists of his time. His work was included in a number of botany textbooks.

In this brightly-colored drawing, we have orange lilies. The flowers are absolutely striking with sunny yellow centers, bright orange tips and numerous black spots.
