EDITORS COMMENTS
This exquisite hand-colored copperplate engraving depicts the Willow-leaved Speedwell, Veronica salicifolia, a beautiful and intricately detailed botanical specimen. The illustration was created by the skilled hand of Miss Sarah Drake, with the engraving expertly executed by George Barclay. This work was published in the prestigious Edwards Botanical Register, edited by the renowned botanist John Lindley, in London during 1846. The Willow-leaved Speedwell is also known by its Maori name, koromiko, and its alternative common name, hebe salicifolia. This plant is native to New Zealand and is characterized by its willow-like leaves and blue, speedwell-like flowers. The delicate, female artist's touch is evident in the intricate rendering of the plant's veins, the subtle shading, and the precise depiction of the tiny hairs on the leaves and stems. The botanical illustration was a vital component of the scientific community during the 19th century, providing an accurate record of the natural world for both scientific and artistic purposes. The Edwards Botanical Register was a leading publication in this field, showcasing the finest botanical illustrations of the time. The collaboration between skilled artists, such as Miss Sarah Drake, and expert engravers, such as George Barclay, resulted in stunning, detailed works that continue to captivate and inspire us today. This engraving is a testament to the beauty and intricacy of the natural world and the artistic skill of those who sought to capture it for future generations to appreciate.
