EDITORS COMMENTS
This exquisite hand-coloured copperplate engraving showcases the enchanting blossoms of the Hawthorn variety, Crataegus oxycantha punicea. The intricate detail of the illustration, produced by renowned engraver George Cooke for Conrad Loddiges' Botanical Cabinet in Hackney, London in 1828, captures the delicate beauty of this Hawthorn tree in full bloom. The Hawthorn tree, a member of the rose family, is native to Europe, North Africa, and western Asia. The variety punicea, also known as the Common Hawthorn or Mayflower, is distinguished by its vibrant pink flowers that burst forth in late spring. These flowers are not only visually stunning but also carry a delightful fragrance, making them a favorite among gardeners and botanists alike. The engraving technique used in this illustration, which involved creating an image by etching lines into a copper plate and then filling in the colors by hand, was a popular method for producing botanical illustrations during the 19th century. The result is a highly detailed and accurate representation of the Hawthorn variety's flowers, showcasing their intricate structures and delicate colors. This illustration not only serves as a testament to the artistic skill of George Cooke and the botanical knowledge of Conrad Loddiges but also offers a glimpse into the rich horticultural history of the 19th century. The Hawthorn variety, Crataegus oxycantha punicea, remains a beloved tree in gardens around the world, and this beautiful illustration continues to inspire awe and appreciation for its natural beauty.
