EDITORS COMMENTS
This exquisite handcoloured copperplate engraving showcases the rare and endangered Canary Island foxglove, Isoplexis canariensis. Native to the volcanic Canary Islands off the northwest coast of Africa, this beautiful plant is a member of the Digitalis family, which also includes the common foxglove found in Europe and Asia. The Canary Island foxglove is a small, herbaceous perennial that grows up to 30 centimeters tall, with bell-shaped, tubular flowers that bloom in shades of pink, purple, and white. The plant's leaves are lanceolate, with a distinctive waxy texture and a pleasant, sweet scent. Sadly, the Canary Island foxglove is now considered an endangered species, with populations declining due to habitat loss, competition with invasive species, and overgrazing by goats and other livestock. This engraving, created by the skilled hand of George Cooke for Conrad Loddiges' Botanical Cabinet in Hackney, England in 1828, serves as an important record of this rare and beautiful plant. The intricate details captured in this engraving highlight the delicate beauty of the Canary Island foxglove, with its veined leaves and intricately patterned flowers. The use of handcolouring adds depth and vibrancy to the image, bringing the plant to life and showcasing its unique characteristics. As we admire the intricacies of this historic botanical illustration, let us also remember the importance of preserving the natural world and protecting endangered species like the Canary Island foxglove. By appreciating and celebrating the beauty of the natural world, we can be inspired to take action to protect it for future generations.
