EDITORS COMMENTS
This exquisite handcoloured lithograph showcases the enchanting beauty of Italian honeysuckle, Lonicera caprifolium major, also known as Goat-leaf honeysuckle. The image is taken from the esteemed botanical work "Flowers of the Gardens and Hothouses of Europe," published in Ghent, Belgium, in 1856 by Louis van Houtte and Charles Lemaires. Italian honeysuckle is a deciduous shrub native to Europe, particularly the Mediterranean region. Its name, caprifolium, derives from the Latin words "capra" (goat) and "folium" (leaf), referring to the distinctive goat-like shape of its leaves. The major variant, Lonicera caprifolium major, is characterized by its large, glossy, and ovate leaves, which are arranged oppositely along the stems. The Italian honeysuckle is renowned for its captivating, fragrant flowers, which bloom in clusters from late spring to early summer. These flowers are tubular in shape, with a bell-like appearance, and come in shades of yellow, orange, and red. The plant's vibrant blooms attract a variety of pollinators, including bees and butterflies, making it an essential component of many gardens. The intricate details of the Italian honeysuckle's foliage and flowers are masterfully captured in this lithograph, which showcases the artists' exceptional skill and dedication to botanical illustration. The delicate shading and precise lines bring the plant to life, allowing viewers to appreciate its beauty and allure up close. This image serves as a testament to the rich botanical heritage of Europe and the importance of documenting the natural world. The meticulous attention to detail and the stunning visual representation of the Italian honeysuckle make this lithograph a true masterpiece in the realm of botanical art.
