This exquisite handcolored copperplate engraving showcases the breathtaking beauty of the Showy Lady's Slipper Orchid, Cypripedium reginae. The intricate details of the orchid's unique structure are brilliantly captured in this botanical illustration, published in Sydenham Edwards' The Botanical Register in London in 1834 by Ridgway. The Showy Lady's Slipper Orchid, also known as the Large White Lady's Slipper or Cypripedium spectabile, is a native North American plant that blooms in the late spring and early summer. The orchid's large, pouch-like labellum, which resembles a lady's slipper, is a distinctive feature that attracts pollinators such as bees and flies. This botanical illustration is a testament to the meticulous work of the botanical artists and engravers of the time. The intricate details of the orchid's veins, petals, and sepals are rendered with remarkable accuracy and precision. The use of handcoloring adds an additional layer of beauty and depth to the illustration. The Showy Lady's Slipper Orchid has a rich history in botany and horticulture. It was first described by John Torrey in 1834, and has since become a popular ornamental plant in gardens around the world. The orchid's unique beauty and rarity have made it a favorite among collectors and botanical enthusiasts. This beautiful illustration not only serves as a record of the natural world, but also as a work of art in its own right. The intricate details and vibrant colors bring the Showy Lady's Slipper Orchid to life, transporting us to a world of natural beauty and wonder.
