EDITORS COMMENTS
This exquisite hand-coloured copperplate engraving showcases the delicate beauty of Lobelia tenuior, also known as Branching Lobelia or Ramosa Lobelia. Created by the skilled hands of botanical illustrator Mrs. Augusta Withers and engraver S. Nevitt, this image was published in Benjamin Maund and the Reverend John Stevens Henslow's esteemed botanical publication, "The Botanist," in London during 1836. The Victorian-era illustration reveals the intricate details of Lobelia tenuior's slender, branching stems adorned with tiny, bell-shaped flowers. The vibrant hues of blue, purple, and white, meticulously applied by the engraver, bring the delicate blooms to life. The foliage, depicted in rich green tones, frames the elegant flowers, adding to the overall charm of the composition. Lobelia tenuior is a herbaceous perennial native to South America, particularly in Brazil, Paraguay, and Argentina. It thrives in cooler climates and is often grown as an ornamental plant in gardens. The plant's tiny, tubular flowers bloom in profusion, attracting various pollinators, including bees and hummingbirds. This stunning botanical illustration is a testament to the artistry and dedication of the Victorian-era botanists and illustrators who meticulously documented the natural world for scientific discovery and appreciation. The intricate details captured in this engraving continue to inspire admiration and fascination among botanists, gardeners, and art enthusiasts alike.
