EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the delicate beauty of the Mignonette Aster, also known as Felicia tenella or Brisly-leaved aster. Created in 1787 by James Sowerby for William Curtis' The Botanical Magazine, this handcoloured copperplate engraving and botanical illustration is a true masterpiece. The image transports us back to Lambeth Marsh in London during the late 18th century, where Sowerby meticulously captured every intricate detail of this enchanting flower. The vibrant colors and precise lines bring the Mignonette Aster to life, allowing us to appreciate its elegance and grace. As we gaze upon this artwork, we are reminded of the importance of botanical knowledge and horticulture in English history. It serves as a testament to the dedication and passion that both Sowerby and Curtis had for their craft. The Mignonette Aster's presence on this print not only represents its significance within British natural history but also highlights its popularity across Europe. Its inclusion in The Botanical Magazine solidifies its place among other esteemed floral species from Germany, Brittany, and beyond. This print captures a moment frozen in time - an exquisite representation of nature's wonders beautifully preserved for generations to come. It is a testament to human curiosity about our world's flora and fauna that continues to inspire awe even centuries later.
