EDITORS COMMENTS
This exquisite hand-colored copperplate engraving showcases the enchanting beauty of Blue Stars, Nivenia corymbosa, also known as Corymbose Witsenia or Witsenia corymbosa. The botanical illustration was meticulously created by the talented Miss Maund and masterfully engraved by S. Nevitt for Benjamin Maund and the Reverend John Stevens Henslow's renowned publication, "The Botanist," published in London in 1836. Blue Stars is a captivating, dainty perennial native to South Africa, boasting clusters of vibrant blue star-shaped flowers adorned with a striking white center. The plant's delicate, slender stems branch out, creating a cascading effect that adds to its allure. The Victorian-era garden comes alive with the ethereal presence of these enchanting blooms, which were a favorite among horticulturists and botanical enthusiasts during that time. The intricate details of the Blue Stars' petals, veins, and stamen are expertly captured in this stunning engraving, providing a glimpse into the meticulous process of botanical illustration during the 19th century. The artistry of Miss Maund and S. Nevitt's collaboration is evident in the rich colors and precise lines, which bring the Blue Stars to life on the page. This print is a testament to the beauty and intrigue of the natural world, as well as the dedication and skill of the artists and scientists who sought to document and preserve it for future generations.
