EDITORS COMMENTS
This exquisite handcolored stipple copperplate engraving showcases the enchanting beauty of Chrysanthemum, Anthemis artemisiaefolia, a native flower from China. The intricately detailed illustration was created by the skilled botanical artist, Pancrace Bessa, and masterfully engraved by Barrois for Mordant de Launay's Herbier General de l'Amateur, published in Paris in 1820. Chrysanthemum, also known as the Golden Shower or Shock-headed Peter, is a beloved flower that has captivated people for centuries. Its vibrant yellow blooms radiate a warm and inviting energy, making it a popular choice for gardens and bouquets. This particular species, Anthemis artemisiaefolia, is native to China and is characterized by its daisy-like flowers, which are arranged in clusters and surrounded by hairy, green leaves. The meticulous process of creating this botanical masterpiece involved the use of a copperplate, which was first etched with fine lines to create the basic outlines of the flower. The plate was then covered with a ground, a fine powder that seals the surface and prevents the ink from seeping into the unintended areas. The artist then applied a series of tiny dots, or stipples, of ink to the plate using a stylus, creating a textured and nuanced image. The final touch was the application of handcolored pigments, which brought the flower to life with rich and vibrant hues. This stunning illustration not only serves as a testament to the artistic skill and dedication of the botanical community during the 19th century but also offers a glimpse into the historical significance of Chrysanthemum as a cherished and admired flower. With its intricate details and vibrant colors, this engraving is a true work of art that continues to inspire and delight.
