EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the exquisite beauty of the Rusty-Leaved Alpenrose (Rhododendron ferrugineum), a stunning flower found in the alpine regions. The colour lithograph, created by an anonymous German artist from the 19th century, is part of a private collection and was originally featured in Anton Hartinger's "Atlas of the Alpine flora" published between 1881 and 1884. The image captures the intricate details of this delicate plant, with its rusty leaves gracefully unfurling amidst a backdrop of lush greenery. The vibrant hues and lifelike depiction make it feel as if one could reach out and touch these enchanting flowers. Also known as snow rose or rostrothe alpenrose, this member of the ericaceae family belongs to eudicots and is classified under ericales. Its presence adds charm to any landscape, particularly in mountainous areas where it thrives despite harsh conditions. This illustration serves as both a work of art and a valuable botanical reference. It allows us to appreciate nature's wonders while providing insight into scientific exploration during that era. As we gaze upon this timeless piece, we are reminded of our connection with nature and how even small plants can leave an indelible mark on our hearts. Bridgeman Images has preserved this extraordinary artwork for generations to come, allowing us to marvel at its beauty today.
