A two-volume work of photographs by Edwin Hale Lincoln consisting of 84 platinum prints, approximately 9 1/2 x 7 1/2 inches each, mounted on white handmade paper. Each photograph has a handwritten ink caption on the mount below the print, with the orchid's scientific and common names and sometimes other description. In most images, plant specimens are presented on a flat surface, showing details of flowers and leaves, with some views of roots and corms. A few photographs depict orchids growing in situ.
