EDITORS COMMENTS
This exquisite handcoloured lithograph depicts the False Lily of the Valley, Maianthemum bifolium, also known as the May Lily or Deer Lily. The image is taken from Diederich von Schlechtendal's renowned botanical work, "Flora von Deutschland" or "Flora of Germany," published in Jena in 1871. The False Lily of the Valley is a native plant of Europe, North America, and Asia, and is characterized by its delicate, bell-shaped white or pink flowers that bloom in late spring. The plant derives its common name from its resemblance to the true Lily of the Valley, despite not being related to it. The intricate details of the False Lily of the Valley's leaves, stems, and flowers are beautifully captured in this lithograph. The leaves, as the name suggests, are bi-foliate, meaning they have two leaflets per stem. The delicate white petals of the flower are arranged in a bell shape, with six stamens and a pistil in the center. The handcolouring adds an extra layer of detail and vibrancy to the image, bringing out the intricacies of the plant's structure and enhancing its natural beauty. The meticulous attention to detail in this botanical illustration is a testament to the skill and dedication of the artist and the importance placed on accurate plant documentation during this period. This lithograph is not only a beautiful addition to any botanical collection but also a valuable historical record of the False Lily of the Valley, showcasing its unique features and the scientific interest in the natural world during the late 19th century.
