EDITORS COMMENTS
This exquisite illustration showcases the mourning iris, Iris susiana, a captivating member of the Iridaceae family, as depicted in the eleventh volume of Flore des serres (Flowers of the Greenhouses) by Jacques-Julien Houtou de La Billardière. The illustration, dated around 1812, is held in the esteemed Botany Library Plate Collection at the Natural History Museum in London. The mourning iris, also known as the long-flowered blue flag, is a monocot angiosperm, belonging to the order Asparagales and the class Magnoliophyta. Its elegant, elongated petals, which range from deep purple to almost black, are a striking feature of this flowering plant. The iris's monocotyledonous nature is evident in its single seed leaf, which emerges from the seed. The illustration captures the mourning iris in its full splendor, with its tall, slender stem supporting the large, drooping blooms. The intricate details of the petals, veins, and stamen are beautifully rendered, revealing the intricacy and artistry of the botanical illustration. The mourning iris, with its somber hue, is a fitting symbol of reflection and introspection. Its allure lies in its ability to evoke a sense of tranquility and contemplation, making it a beloved addition to any botanical collection. This illustration, a testament to the beauty and diversity of the natural world, serves as a reminder of the importance of preserving and documenting the world's flora for future generations to appreciate and learn from.
