The images were faithfully reproduced by french printer henri piazza as collotypes with hand-stenciled watercolor additions in a technique called pochoir. The portrayals are often mistaken for original watercolors. 300 copies of the flower book were published, most as bound books, though a small number were produced as individually matted plates housed in a clamshell box. This is from the unbound "book" in the delaware art museum. Date: 1905.
