EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning chromolithograph depicts two rare and exotic flowers, Magnolia pterocarpa and Liriodendron grandiflorum, which were meticulously captured in botanical drawings by the English aristocratic writer and traveler, Emily Eden, during her journey to India between 1836 and 1842. The image is taken from Eden's "Flowers from an Indian Garden: Second Series," published by Hope, Breidenbach & Co in Dusseldorf during the 1860s. Magnolia pterocarpa, also known as the Indian Tulip Tree or the Indian Magnolia, is now considered extinct in its natural habitat. This magnificent tree was renowned for its large, red flowers, which bloomed in the spring. The tree's extinction is a tragic loss to the botanical world, as it held significant cultural and aesthetic value. Liriodendron grandiflorum, or the Tulip Tree, is a native North American species, and its large, tulip-shaped flowers are a symbol of springtime. Eden's meticulous botanical drawings showcase the intricacies and beauty of these flowers, which were a source of inspiration for many Victorian-era poets and artists. Emily Eden's travels in India during the Raj era offer a unique perspective on the colonial period, as she was not only an observer but also an active participant in the social and cultural exchanges between the British and Indian communities. Her botanical drawings, such as this one, provide a valuable record of the natural world during this time, as well as a testament to her artistic talent and passion for nature.
