EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning handcoloured lithograph showcases the Amazon-blue snapdragon, also known as the Brazilian snapdragon (Achetaria azurea, syn. Otacanthus caeruleus), a captivating flower native to South America. Originally discovered in the Amazon rainforest, this snapdragon species stands out with its vibrant, azure-blue hue, a striking contrast to the typical red, orange, and yellow colors commonly associated with snapdragons. The intricate details of the flower are beautifully rendered in this exquisite print, which is taken from the renowned horticultural publication "Flowers of the Gardens and Hothouses of Europe" by Louis van Houtte and Charles Lemaires. Published in Ghent, Belgium between 1862 and 1865, this comprehensive work documented a wide variety of exotic plants cultivated in European gardens and conservatories during the Victorian era. The Amazon-blue snapdragon, with its unique coloration and allure, was a prized addition to the European horticultural scene, and its inclusion in this prestigious publication attests to its popularity and rarity. The delicate petals, adorned with intricate veining and subtle shading, are artfully depicted in this handcoloured lithograph, which captures the essence of this enchanting flower in all its splendor. This print not only serves as a testament to the beauty and diversity of the natural world but also showcases the remarkable skill and artistry of the European botanical illustrators of the time. The intricate details and vibrant colors bring the Amazon-blue snapdragon to life, inviting us to appreciate the wonder and allure of this exotic flower from the comfort of our own homes.
