Geranium by artist D. Platt - 17" tall by 22" wide.

This original Collotype was printed in 1950. As can be seen in the images, this particular set of prints has undergone more yellowing than our other new vintage stock.

Geraniums, scientifically known as Pelargonium, are versatile flowering plants that have found their way to Guatemala, contributing to the country's rich botanical diversity. Guatemala's climate, characterized by a combination of tropical and subtropical conditions, provides an ideal environment for the cultivation of geraniums. These plants, with their vibrant and varied blooms, thrive in the fertile soils of Guatemala. Geraniums are appreciated not only for their ornamental value but also for their potential medicinal properties. In some cultures, geraniums are believed to have therapeutic benefits, such as anti-inflammatory and antimicrobial properties. As part of the flora in Guatemala, geraniums add a splash of color to gardens, contributing to the country's natural beauty and biodiversity.

Just like the majority of our inventory at Pink Flamingos, this listing is vintage and has never been displayed or used. It's from limited, unopened stock sourced directly from the original manufacturer or distributer. As a result, its colors are more vibrant than those typically found in similarly aged prints, leading us to classify it as "new." Curious about new vintage?

Please note that this listing is for an unframed authentic, genuine old print published in the early-to-mid 20th century using quality paper and inks. It reflects the colors and styles popular in decorative accessories of that era. The patina resulting from any minor discoloration or fading is indicative of its age and contributes to its uniqueness.

What is "New Vintage"?

"New vintage" refers to original, vintage artwork from the early 20th century that has never been purchased, used, or displayed by a consumer. At Pink Flamingos, we offer a remarkable collection of these pristine prints, sourced directly from manufacturers. Unlike other vintage artwork that may have faded or aged over time, our "new vintage" prints retain their vibrant colors and impeccable condition. With their untouched allure, these artworks carry a unique historical value and provide collectors with an opportunity to own a piece of art history that is both rare and exceptionally well-preserved.
