EDITORS COMMENTS
This exquisite hand-colored copperplate engraving showcases the enchanting beauty of Poro poro, also known as Passiflora pinnatistipula, a rare and captivating passionflower species. The intricate details of the flower are brought to life through the skillful artistry of S. Watts, who meticulously engraved this work based on an illustration by the talented botanical artist, Miss Sarah Drake M. Hart. The Poro poro passionflower, also referred to as Mrs. Marryat's Tacsonia or Tacsonia pinnatistipula, is a native of South America. Its unique features set it apart from other passionflowers, with its distinctive pinnate-lobed leaves and vibrant, tubular flowers adorned with an intricate array of filaments and stigmas. This stunning botanical illustration was published in the esteemed Botanical Register, a prominent horticultural journal edited by Sydenham Edwards and published in Ridgeway, London, in 1832. The Botanical Register was renowned for its high-quality engravings and was a valuable resource for botanists, horticulturists, and garden enthusiasts of the time. As you gaze upon the intricate details of this Poro poro passionflower, take a moment to appreciate the artistry and dedication that went into creating this beautiful work. The delicate petals, the intricate veining on the leaves, and the fine details of the reproductive structures all come together to create a work of art that transcends time and continues to captivate our imagination.
