EDITORS COMMENTS
This exquisite watercolour painting depicts the Late Spider Orchid (Ophrys holosericea) in both side and front views, showcasing its intricate beauty and unique anatomy. Painted by the renowned botanical artist Franz Bauer in 1807, this artwork is part of the British Orchids collection, which spans the years 1798 to 1817. The Late Spider Orchid, native to the Mediterranean region, is known for its distinctive appearance, with its labellum resembling the head and body of a spider. The orchid's petals are a rich, velvety purple, contrasting beautifully with the lighter hue of its sepals. The attention to detail in this watercolour is truly remarkable, with each vein and texture of the flower's petals and sepals rendered with meticulous precision. The painting also provides a valuable record of the orchid's anatomy, allowing for a deeper understanding of its complex structure. This artwork is not only a stunning example of botanical illustration but also an important contribution to the scientific documentation of the Late Spider Orchid during the early 19th century.
