EDITORS COMMENTS
This exquisite handcoloured lithograph depicts the enchanting White Orchid-tree, Bauhinia acuminata, a native of India. The image is based on an illustration by Lena Lowis, who created this work during her time in India with her husband, Lt.-Col. Ninian Lowis. The illustration was published as part of her collection "Familiar Indian Flowers with Coloured Plates," which was released by L. Reeve in London in 1878. Lena Lowis, formerly Selena Caroline Shakespear, was a British woman artist known for her exceptional talent in botanical illustration. Her works were admired for their intricate detail and vibrant colors, making them valuable additions to botanical records and personal collections. The White Orchid-tree, also referred to as the dwarf white bauhinia or the snowy bauhinia, is a small tree that is native to the Western Ghats and the Nilgiris in southern India. The tree is characterized by its beautiful, white, orchid-like flowers, which bloom in clusters. The flowers are a favorite among pollinators, particularly bees and butterflies, making the tree an essential part of the local ecosystem. The handcoloured lithograph by D. Blair, based on Lowis's illustration, captures the tree's delicate beauty with remarkable accuracy. The intricate details of the flowers and the tree's foliage are brought to life through the skilled use of color, creating an image that is as captivating as the real tree itself. This artwork is a testament to Lowis's artistic talent and her deep appreciation for the natural world.
