Rare prints and maps...Since 1918! Click here to go to Darvill's home page.

Since Adirondack Retro acquired Darvill's Rare Prints in August of 2022, we have been working tirelessly on our New State-Of-The Art Website. We are excited to announce that it is now up and running and that our massive inventory of Antique Prints and Rare Maps are being transferred over to the new site daily. In addition to the nearly 500,000 prints found on www.DarvillsRarePrints.com, Adirondack Retro offers an eclectic selection of Antique and Vintage Advertisements along with their Limited Edition Giclee Prints. During this transition, customers will still be able to shop and make purchases on www.DarvillsRarePrints.com.

The Garden. An Illustrated Weekly Journal of Horticulture in all its Branches.

The Garden. An Illustrated Weekly Journal of Horticulture in all its Branches.

London, 1871-1926 • Founder and editor, William Robinson

Original Antique Color Lithographs (Chromolithographs) by the Belgian firm G. Severeyns and its successor J.L. Goffart, renown for their fine craftmanship in lithography.

Sheet size is approx. 8¾ x 11¾ inches, though some may have been trimmed somewhat.
Note: The sheets are too large to scan entirely, thus the margins may appear smaller than they really are.
Some foxing and other age-related conditions may exist, so please have a look at the enlargements by clicking on the thumbnails provided.

THE PLATES ARE LISTED IN ALPHABETICAL ORDER.
(Not all titles are present, so those plates without titles are shown on the last page.)
