What are Botanicals or Botanical Illustration?

Botanical illustration is the art of depicting the form, color, and details of plant life.

As a rule, I use the term generically to represent anything in nature, plants, seaweed, eggs, feathers, butterflies and the like. Rooted in tradition as the predecessor to photography botanicals make a great addition to any room.

I've always been a fan of botanicals and today you can find all sorts of styles. Additionally you can find them by color, category and in varying sizes to fit any home decor.

For Instance on the website Pintrest you will find a number of free printable. That's copies that you can print at home for next to nothing. Similarly you can find collections of vintage botanicals for sale on websites like Etsy, Charish, One Kings Lane and many more.

Here are some articles on the origin history of Botanicals from My Modern Met.

Art that captures the beauty of nature are beautiful! Best of all botanicals are a great way to pull together a grouping to fill a large wall. Prints are a much less expensive route and can vary in both quality and price. Lower end reproductions are basically color copies. On the higher end are hand painted botanicals.

Definatly a Designer GO-TO.
