Sky Hibiscus | Bold Mid-Century Bloom
With striking blue petals and lush green foliage, Sky Hibiscus by Erich F.T. Schenk showcases the artist’s gift for transforming simple floral forms into dramatic compositions.

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?

What is "New Vintage"?
