EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning handcoloured lithograph depicts the enchanting Snakes Head Fritillary, Fritillaria meleagris, from Diederich von Schlechtendal's German Flora (Flora von Deutschland), published in Jena in 1871. The Snakes Head Fritillary is a beautiful and rare bulbous perennial plant, native to Europe and Western Asia. It is named for its distinctive bell-shaped flowers, which bear a striking resemblance to the hoods of snakes, with intricate patterns of red and yellow speckles. The botanical illustration captures the delicate details of the Snakes Head Fritillary's petals, veins, and stamens, as well as the distinctive markings on the leaves. The handcolouring adds an extra layer of detail and vibrancy, bringing the flower to life. The Snakes Head Fritillary was a popular subject for botanical illustrations during the 19th century, and this lithograph is a testament to the skill and artistry of the time. It is a valuable addition to any botanical or garden collection, and a reminder of the beauty and diversity of the natural world. The Snakes Head Fritillary is a rare and elusive plant in the wild, and is now primarily cultivated in gardens. It prefers damp meadows and woodlands, and is often found growing in clusters among other wildflowers. The plant's unique appearance and rarity make it a sought-after addition to any garden, and a reminder of the rich botanical heritage of Europe and beyond.
