EDITORS COMMENTS
This exquisite hand-colored copperplate engraving showcases the enchanting White-flowered Anacampseros, Anacampseros arachnoides, a succulent plant native to South Africa. The intricate detail of the engraving, produced by F. Sansom after an illustration by Sydenham Edwards, was first published in William Curtis' renowned horticultural journal, The Botanical Magazine, in London in 1811. Anacampseros arachnoides is a small, mat-forming succulent with fleshy leaves that are covered in tiny, white hairs, giving it a soft, velvety texture. The plant produces clusters of delicate, star-shaped, white flowers, which bloom profusely in late winter and early spring. The engraving captures the ethereal beauty of these flowers, their petals delicately unfurling to reveal their intricate, veined structures. The White-flowered Anacampseros is a popular addition to rock gardens and alpine collections, and its charming appearance makes it a favorite among plant enthusiasts. This engraving is a testament to the artistry and dedication of the botanical illustrators and engravers of the past, who meticulously documented the natural world for future generations to appreciate and learn from.
