VINTAGE BOTANICAL PRINTS

The Lemon Branch

Vintage Botanical Print

Three ripe yellow lemons hang from a leafy branch, among small white five-petalled blossoms and glossy dark-green leaves. Soft watercolour washes give it the gentle look of an antique botanical plate, set on a warm cream background.

The Lemon Branch — Samsung Frame TV art, 3840 × 2160
How large can I print it?

The file is around 9,000 px on the long edge. That prints crisply to about 75 cm on the long edge at gallery quality, and to 130–170 cm at the distance you look at a picture over furniture. Sizes, paper and framing, in detail →

Which paper or surface?

Gold on dark grounds wants a matte or satin fine-art paper (200–310 gsm), or aluminium for humid rooms; glossy photo paper turns the black into a mirror. The pale works also take satin and baryta papers.

Which licence do I need?

Personal (€9.99) covers your own home and gifts. Any business or space open to the public — a spa, clinic, hotel, office, restaurant — needs the commercial licence (€99.99, one venue, no renewal). The venue guide →

About this work

Three ripe lemons hang from a single branch, their yellow skins catching the light between glossy dark-green leaves. Small white five-petalled blossoms open along the stem, so flower and fruit appear together, as they often do on a lemon tree. The whole branch is painted in soft watercolour, in the manner of an antique botanical plate, on a warm cream background.

Citrus trees were prized in Europe for centuries, sheltered in orangeries through the winter and recorded in loving detail by botanical artists. On antique botanical plates of the 18th and 19th centuries, a branch was often shown with blossom, leaf and fruit side by side, so that one sheet could describe the whole plant. The Lemon Branch follows that habit, and its gentle washes of colour keep the calm, airy feel of those old pages.

This is natural kitchen wall art: hang it above a breakfast table, beside open shelves or above a sideboard in the dining room. It looks fresh on white, cream, pale yellow, sage or soft terracotta walls. The 7168 × 10752 px print file stays sharp to about 60 × 90 cm, and a light oak or white frame keeps it bright. A Frame TV version with a gallery mat is included. It pairs nicely with Hummingbird and Fuchsia.
