EDITORS COMMENTS
This exquisite handcolored copperplate engraving showcases the captivating beauty of the Hoop Petticoat Narcissus, or Narcissus bulbocodium. The botanical illustration was created in 1789 for William Curtis's Botanical Magazine, published in Lambeth, London. The intricate details of the flower are masterfully captured in this engraving, with each petal and vein rendered with meticulous precision. The Hoop Petticoat Narcissus is a rare and delicate bulbous perennial native to the Mediterranean region. Its common name derives from the unique shape of its flowers, which resemble hoop petticoats or frilly skirts. Each bloom features six to twelve white or yellow petals that are edged with bright red or pink, creating a stunning contrast and adding to the flower's allure. This botanical illustration is a testament to the rich history of botany and the art of botanical illustration. The Botanical Magazine, founded in 1787, was one of the earliest and most influential publications dedicated to documenting and disseminating knowledge about the natural world. The publication's high-quality illustrations, produced using the latest techniques, were highly sought after by collectors and scholars alike. The intricate details of this engraving, from the delicate veins on the petals to the precise shading and coloring, demonstrate the skill and dedication of the botanical illustrators and engravers of the time. This beautiful image not only serves as a record of the natural world, but also as a work of art that continues to captivate and inspire appreciation for the beauty and complexity of the natural world.
