EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning handcoloured lithograph depicts the English oak, Quercus robur nigra, also known as the black English oak or the black oak. This variety of English oak is characterized by its dark, almost black bark, which contrasts beautifully with the bright green leaves and acorns. The English oak is one of the most iconic trees in Europe, and is the national tree of England. It is a large, strong tree that can live for up to 800 years, reaching heights of up to 40 meters. The wood of the English oak is highly valued for its durability and strength, and has been used for centuries for timber, fuel, and furniture making. This exquisite print is taken from the horticultural masterpiece "Flowers of the Gardens and Hothouses of Europe" by Louis van Houtte and Charles Lemaires. Published in Ghent, Belgium between 1867 and 1868, this work was a comprehensive record of the most beautiful and rare plants from Europe and beyond. The attention to detail and the vibrant colours used in this print are a testament to the skill and artistry of the lithographers and botanical illustrators of the time. The English oak has long been a symbol of strength, resilience, and endurance. Its dark, mysterious bark and the promise of new life in the acorns make it a fascinating subject for botanical art and a source of inspiration for gardeners and horticulturists alike. This print is not only a beautiful work of art, but also a valuable record of the natural world and the rich horticultural heritage of Europe.
