EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the exquisite beauty of the Etoile de Moortebeek variety of Odontoglossum, a rare and exotic orchid. Originally illustrated by the renowned Belgian botanical artist, Charles de Bruyne, and meticulously chromolithographed by Paul de Pannemaeker for Lucien Linden's seminal work, "Lindenia, Iconography of Orchids," published in Brussels in 1902, this image offers a glimpse into the rich history of orchid cultivation and botanical exploration. The Etoile de Moortebeek is a hybrid of the Odontoglossum Loochristiense species, characterized by its stunning white petals adorned with vibrant purple veins and a distinctive central tuft of yellow labellum. This orchid is native to the tropical regions of South America and thrives in hothouse environments, making it a prized possession for collectors and hobbyists around the world. The intricate details of the illustration reveal the delicate intricacies of the Etoile de Moortebeek's petals, sepals, and labellum, as well as the intricate arrangement of its roots and rhizome. The chromolithograph process, a popular method of printmaking during the late 19th and early 20th centuries, allowed for the creation of detailed, vibrant, and lifelike botanical illustrations. This print not only serves as a beautiful decorative piece, but also as a testament to the dedication and passion of the botanical community during the late Victorian era for the study and preservation of the natural world. The Etoile de Moortebeek variety of Odontoglossum remains a beloved and sought-after orchid among collectors and horticulturists today, making this print a valuable addition to any botanical or orchid enthusiast's collection.
