EDITORS COMMENTS
This exquisite handfinished chromolithograph by Henry Noel Humphreys, based on an illustration by Jane Loudon from her seminal work "Mrs. Jane Loudon's Ladies Flower Garden of Ornamental Perennials," published in London in 1849, showcases an enchanting array of Poppy or Papaver species. The vibrant print features a stunning collection of poppies, each with its unique charm and character. At the center, the Oriental Poppy (Papaver orientale) steals the show with its large, brilliantly colored blooms, available in various hues, from rich reds to oranges and pinks. Surrounding it are the Alpine Poppy (Papaver alpinum) with its delicate, fern-like foliage and small, nodding flowers, and the Orange-red Poppy (P. rubro-aurantiacum), boasting bright, velvety red-orange blossoms. The Common Welsh Poppy (Meconopsis cambrica) adds a touch of elegance with its distinctive blue-purple flowers, while the Large-flowered Prickly Poppy (Argemone grandiflora) showcases its large, spiny blooms in shades of yellow and red. The Canadian Bloodroot (Sanguinaria canadensis) and Cordate-leaved Macleaya (Macleaya cordata) complete the scene, contributing their unique textures and shapes. This print is a testament to the beauty and diversity of the poppy family. It serves as a reminder of the rich history of botanical illustration and the enduring allure of these beloved flowers. The intricate details and vibrant colors bring these poppy species to life, making it a must-have for any botanical art collection or garden enthusiast's study.
