Design History:Unfortunately, the example at lower right has been margin-trimmed, the originally pale creamy white paper is badly toned, and the colors (especially the purples) are significantly faded.
The silhouette of wf21 is also used as the overlay element in a supplemental set design, wfx15.
These two orchid prints are among only three prints in this series which list more than one species in the title-caption.
Species Illustrated:The other orchid is an as yet unidentified species of Epidendrum.
