EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning chromolithograph depicts the Golden Shower Orchid, Gomesa concolor (previously known as Oncidium concolor), a captivating tropical plant native to South America. The intricately detailed illustration, created by P. Stroobant for Jean Linden's Horticole, a renowned botanical publication based in Brussels, was published in 1883. The Golden Shower Orchid is renowned for its vibrant, golden-yellow flowers, which appear in dense, cascading clusters that resemble a golden shower. The delicate, elongated petals and sepals are adorned with intricate veining and subtle markings, adding to the orchid's allure. The plant's long, slender stems can grow up to 3 feet in length, making it a striking addition to any tropical garden or greenhouse. The Golden Shower Orchid is a popular choice among orchid enthusiasts for its ease of cultivation and its ability to thrive in a wide range of temperatures and humidity levels. This beautiful, historic illustration not only showcases the exquisite beauty of this exotic plant but also serves as a testament to the artistry and dedication of the botanical illustrators of the late 19th century.
