EDITORS COMMENTS
This exquisite hand-colored copperplate engraving showcases the captivating beauty of Spiderwort, Tradescantia crassifolia var. acaulis, also known as Iridescent Tradescantia or Tradescantia iridescens. The image, produced by G. Barclay after W.B. Booth, was published in John Lindley and Robert Sweet's Ornamental Flower Garden and Shrubbery in 1854. The meticulous detail in this botanical illustration allows us to appreciate the intricate veining on the leaves and the delicate, iridescent hues that give this plant its unique name. Spiderwort, a member of the Commelinaceae family, is native to Central and South America. It is characterized by its distinctive three-petaled flowers that open in the morning and close at night, resembling a spider's web. The variety acaulis, as depicted in this engraving, is a low-growing, mat-forming plant, with creeping stems that root at the nodes, making it an excellent groundcover. The illustration was created during the height of the Victorian era, a time when botanical exploration and documentation were at their peak. The Ornamental Flower Garden and Shrubbery, published by G. Willis in London, was a popular and influential work, providing both aesthetic and educational value to its readers. This engraving, featuring the work of renowned botanical artists and engravers, is a testament to the beauty and importance of the natural world during the 19th century. The intricate details captured in this image allow us to appreciate the unique characteristics of Spiderwort and transport us back in time to an era when botanical exploration and documentation were at their height.
