EDITORS COMMENTS
In this woodcut print from 1885, we are transported to the Royal Gardens at Laken, Brussels, where the latest addition to the horticultural landscape is taking shape. The new greenhouses, built by the esteemed Compagnie Continentale d'Horticulture, are a marvel of architectural and botanical innovation. The intricate design of the greenhouses reveals a harmonious blend of functionality and aesthetic appeal. The glass panels, tinted to filter sunlight and maintain optimal growing conditions, glisten in the light, while the ornate ironwork frames lend an air of elegance. The central stove, a vital component of the greenhouse system, is depicted in meticulous detail, its chimney reaching skyward to release the excess heat. The greenhouses are home to an array of exotic and tropical plants, their vibrant colors and lush foliage contrasting beautifully with the cool, monochromatic tones of the woodcut print. The botanical illustration, published by Jean Lindens' L'Illustration Horticole, offers a tantalizing glimpse into the diverse world of horticulture, where the boundaries between the natural and the man-made blur. The Royal Gardens at Laken, Brussels, have long been a source of pride for the city, and the addition of these new greenhouses further solidified their reputation as a horticultural haven. The Compagnie Continentale d'Horticulture, a pioneer in the field, was instrumental in bringing the beauty of the tropics to the heart of Europe, allowing generations to marvel at the wonders of the natural world, right in their own backyard.
