EDITORS COMMENTS
This exquisite illustration showcases Lilium speciosum, also known as the Easter Lily or Turkish Lily, as depicted in Henry John Elwes' monograph of the Lilium genus, published between 1877 and 1880. The illustration was created by the renowned botanical artist Walter Hood Fitch, who meticulously captured the intricate details of this stunning flower. Lilium speciosum is an herbaceous perennial bulbous plant native to the eastern Mediterranean region. It is characterized by its large, pure white flowers with a delicate fragrance, which bloom in the late spring or early summer. The flowers are borne on tall scapes that can reach up to 1.5 meters in height. Each flower features six large, broad petals and six smaller, narrower sepals. The monograph by Elwes and Fitch was a significant contribution to the scientific understanding of the Lilium genus, providing detailed descriptions and illustrations of over 100 species. The publication of this work helped to advance botanical knowledge and appreciation for these beautiful and iconic flowers. Today, Lilium speciosum is widely cultivated for ornamental use and is a popular choice for Easter decorations due to its association with the resurrection of Christ. The Easter Lily's symbolism of purity and rebirth makes it a beloved and timeless addition to gardens and homes around the world.
