EDITORS COMMENTS
This exquisite handcolored illustration showcases the luscious ripe fruit and elegant flower of the Roseberry Strawberry, Fragaria ananassa, as depicted in Charles McIntosh's Flora and Pomona published in 1829. The Scottish gardener and author, McIntosh, was renowned for his work with European aristocracy and royalty, and his extensive knowledge of horticulture is evident in this stunning botanical representation. The illustration was expertly drawn by E.D. Smith, a skilled botanical artist who also worked for Robert Sweet and Benjamin Maund. Smith's meticulous attention to detail is evident in the intricate veining of the strawberry's leaves, the delicate petals of the rose-like flower, and the vibrant red hue of the ripe fruit. The engraving, executed by Watts, further enhances the illustration's beauty by adding depth and texture to the image. The 19th century historical significance of this work is evident in the elegant style and high-quality production values. The Roseberry Strawberry, also known as the Chilean Strawberry or the Bountiful Strawberry, is a cultivar of the wild strawberry (Fragaria virginiana) that was first introduced to Europe from Chile in the late 18th century. Its large, juicy fruit and attractive appearance quickly made it a favorite among gardeners and consumers alike. This illustration is a testament to the beauty and importance of botanical art in the 19th century, and a reminder of the rich history of horticulture and gardening that continues to inspire us today.
