EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning botanical print, drawn and zincographed by the skilled hand of C.T. Rosenberg, showcases two exquisite flowers from the mid-19th century: the yellow-flowered Gastrolobium cuneatum and the deep purple-flowered Linaria reticulata. The print was created for Thomas Moore's The Garden Companion and Florist's Guide, published by Charles Frederick Cheffins in 1852. Rosenberg was a prolific botanical illustrator, contributing many drawings and engravings to Moore's The Gardeners' Magazine of Botany and W.J. Hooker's Curtis's Botanical Magazine during the same period. Moore, who served as the curator of the Botanic Garden, Chelsea, from 1847 until his death, was a respected figure in the horticultural world. The yellow-flowered Gastrolobium cuneatum, also known as the prickly pea, is a native Australian plant with distinctive, thorny stems and bright, golden blooms. The deep purple-flowered Linaria reticulata, or the spotted toadflax, is a European species with intricately patterned, tubular flowers and a distinctive, toad-like scent. This beautiful print not only showcases the intricacies of these two flowers but also provides a glimpse into the rich botanical knowledge and artistic skill of the time. The meticulous attention to detail and the vibrant colors bring these flowers to life, making them a true delight for anyone with an appreciation for the natural world.
