EDITORS COMMENTS
Ornithogalum collinum, commonly known as Star of Bethlehem, is a beautiful bulbous perennial plant native to South Africa. This exquisite handcoloured lithograph is an illustration from Diederich von Schlechtendal's renowned botanical work, "Flora von Deutschland" (Flora of Germany), published in Jena, Germany, in 1871. The meticulously detailed image showcases the delicate white flowers of Ornithogalum collinum, which bloom in early spring, resembling stars scattered on the ground. The plant derives its common name from the belief that the star-like flowers appeared in Bethlehem at the time of Jesus' birth. The lithograph's vibrant colours and intricate shading bring the plant's unique features to life, providing a captivating glimpse into the natural world of over a century ago. This botanical illustration not only serves as a testament to the beauty and diversity of the plant kingdom but also showcases the exceptional artistry and dedication of Diederich von Schlechtendal and his team in documenting the natural world.
