The original
“The Botanical Magazine or Flower Garden Displayed: Umbel-Flowering Bulb-Bearing Orange-Lily” by Thomas Curtis (British), The Botanical Magazine, 1807, is in the public domain. The image comes from the Cleveland Museum of Art, which shares it under CC0 (no rights reserved).
The print
Tiraj reduces the hand-coloured engraving to three flat, opaque screen-printed layers: warm black for the shadows and stamens, tulip red for the petals, sage for the leaves and the speckled throats. Each layer is a hard-edged shape with a little ink spread, like a mid-century botanical poster.
The paper tone is part of the artwork; print on white matte paper. The warm cream sheet and the printing texture are printed into the file.

Printing tips
Use heavyweight white matte paper (200 gsm or more, archival matte or cotton rag). Print at 100% / actual size, not 'fit to page', and pick the file that matches your frame. This is a landscape artwork: all files are horizontal.
Colours can vary slightly between screens and printers.
