EDITORS COMMENTS
This exquisite blue Iris specimen, depicted in Folio 67 from John Edwards' A Collection of Flowers, published between 1768 and 1795, is a stunning example of the beauty and intricacy of the Iridaceae family. The Iris, a monocotyledonous flowering plant, is part of the larger group of Angiospermae, or flowering plants, and the order Asparagales. This particular illustration, held in the esteemed Botany Library at the Natural History Museum in London, showcases the Iris in its full glory. The delicate petals, which unfurl in a vibrant blue hue, surround the distinctive central column, adorned with fine white lines and a golden-yellow signal cord. The Iris, with its elegant form and rich coloration, has long been a favorite subject of botanical illustrators and horticulturists alike. This 18th-century illustration, created by the skilled hand of John Edwards, not only captures the essence of this plant but also serves as a testament to the artistry and scientific curiosity of the time. The Iris, with its timeless allure, continues to inspire and delight botanists, gardeners, and art lovers alike.
