EDITORS COMMENTS
This exquisite hand-colored copperplate engraving showcases the captivating beauty of the Crested Iris, Iris cristata. Created by the skilled hand of George Cooke, this illustration was produced as part of Conrad Loddiges' Botanical Cabinet, published in Hackney, London, in 1828. The intricate detailing and vibrant colors bring the delicate features of this rare and enchanting iris to life. The Crested Iris, also known as the Dwarf Crested Iris, is a small, crested, rhizomatous perennial that is native to the eastern United States. It is characterized by its unique crest or ruff of fine, white hairs that adorns the falls of the flower. The flowers of the Crested Iris bloom in late spring and early summer, displaying a range of colors from blue-purple to white. This beautiful illustration offers a glimpse into the world of botanical discovery during the 19th century. The meticulous process of hand-coloring each print was a labor-intensive task, requiring great skill and patience. The result is a stunning work of art that captures the essence of the Crested Iris and showcases the dedication and expertise of the botanical illustrators of the time. The Crested Iris remains a popular and sought-after plant in gardens today, appreciated for its unique beauty and rarity. This illustration serves as a testament to the enduring allure of the natural world and the importance of documenting its wonders for future generations to enjoy.
