Knowledgeable rose conoisseurs will recognize, that this 20th century hand-coloring is botanically not always correct. The colorist obviously was advised to do the colors as they are, or he / she did not know any better, or he / she did not understand Latin. The outcome my be botanically incorrect, but the decorative value is actually enhanced.

Minimal traces of age and use.
