EDITORS COMMENTS
This exquisite handcoloured copperplate engraving showcases the enchanting beauty of the Paperwhite or Bunch-flowered Daffodil, Narcissus tazetta, as captured by the skilled hands of Weddell, after the original work of Edwin Dalton Smith. Published in John Lindley and Robert Sweet's Ornamental Flower Garden and Shrubbery in 1854, this botanical illustration offers a detailed and accurate representation of the Paperwhite's elegant form. The Paperwhite, also known as Narcissus tazetta, Narcissus bazelmani, or Narcissus trewianus, is a species of daffodil that is native to the Mediterranean region. It is distinguished by its small, bell-shaped, white flowers, which bloom in clusters on a tall, slender stem. The Paperwhite's name derives from the fact that its bulbs were traditionally used to make paper, as they contain a high starch content. The intricate details of the engraving reveal the delicate veining on the leaves, the delicate folds of the petals, and the intricate structure of the flower's reproductive parts. The handcolouring adds a richness and depth to the image, bringing out the subtle variations in colour and texture. This illustration is a testament to the artistry and scientific precision of the Victorian era's botanical illustrators, who dedicated themselves to documenting the natural world with meticulous attention to detail. It remains a stunning example of the beauty and diversity of the daffodil family, and a reminder of the enduring allure of nature's simple pleasures.
