EDITORS COMMENTS
1. Title: "Naples Garlic: A Botanical Marvel - An Exquisite Handcoloured Copperplate Engraving from the Ornamental Flower Garden and Shrubbery" This stunning handcoloured copperplate engraving depicts the captivating beauty of Naples garlic, scientifically known as Allium neapolitanum or Neapolitan moly. The image, created by Weddell after Edwin Dalton Smith, is an exquisite masterpiece taken from John Lindley and Robert Sweet's Ornamental Flower Garden and Shrubbery, published in London by G. Willis in 1854. The Naples garlic, also referred to as daffodil garlic, is a unique and intriguing bulbous perennial native to Southern Italy. It is characterized by its distinctive, vibrant, yellow-green flowers that bloom in the spring, bearing a striking resemblance to those of the daffodil. The plant's bulbs, which are edible, have a mild garlic flavour and are often used in Italian cuisine. The meticulous detail and artistry evident in this botanical illustration are a testament to the high standards of horticultural documentation during the Victorian era. The delicate petals of the Naples garlic flowers are rendered in precise detail, with the veins and intricacies of each petal clearly visible. The bulbs, with their papery outer layers and individual cloves, are also depicted with remarkable accuracy. This illustration not only showcases the aesthetic appeal of the Naples garlic but also serves as an important record of this fascinating plant in the annals of botanical history. It invites us to appreciate the beauty and diversity of the natural world and the skill of the artists and scientists who documented it.
