EDITORS COMMENTS
Five Eyes: A Victorian Botanical Marvel, Chamaesaracha viscosa (Schrader's Physalis, Physalis schraderiana) This exquisite hand-colored copperplate engraving showcases the enchanting Five Eyes, or Chamaesaracha viscosa, also known as Schrader's Physalis or Physalis schraderiana. Created by the skilled hands of engraver S. Nevitt, this masterpiece is based on a botanical illustration by the talented Mrs. Augusta Withers. The image was published in Benjamin Maund and the Reverend John Stevens Henslow's esteemed botanical publication, "The Botanist," in London during 1836. The Five Eyes plant is a captivating beauty, with its star-shaped, five-petaled flowers, each boasting a striking, golden-yellow center encircled by five red, "eye-like" markings. The plant's unique appearance has earned it this intriguing common name. The Five Eyes thrived in Victorian gardens, adding a touch of whimsy and wonder to the lush, green landscapes of the era. Mrs. Withers' meticulous illustration captures the delicate intricacies of the Five Eyes flower, from the fine veining on its petals to the intricate details of its reproductive structures. Nevitt's engraving further brings the illustration to life, with the rich colors and detailed lines that only hand-coloring and copperplate engraving can achieve. This stunning botanical print is a testament to the beauty and importance of botany during the Victorian era. It serves as a reminder of the fascination and appreciation for the natural world that drove collectors and enthusiasts to amass botanical collections and document the wonders of the plant kingdom. Today, this engraving remains a captivating work of art and a reminder of the rich history of botanical illustration.
