EDITORS COMMENTS
This exquisite handcolored copperplate engraving showcases the enchanting beauty of the Sulphur-coloured Ismene, Ismene amancaes var. sulphurea. The botanical illustration, which dates back to 1834, was originally published in Sydenham Edwards' esteemed publication, The Botanical Register, based in London. The Ismene amancaes var. sulphurea, also known as the Sulphur Ismene or Hyacinthoides sulphurea, is a rare and captivating hybrid between Ismene amancaes and Ixia labroca. The vibrant sulphur hue of this Ismene variety sets it apart from its relatives, making it a true botanical marvel. The delicate petals of the flower are intricately depicted in the engraving, revealing their intricate veining and subtle texture. The central labellum, with its distinctive orange-yellow coloration, adds an alluring contrast to the surrounding petals. The historical significance of this botanical illustration lies in its origin from The Botanical Register, a publication that played a crucial role in documenting and disseminating knowledge about new and exotic plant species during the 19th century. The meticulous handcoloring process, which was a common practice during this time, further enhanced the accuracy and visual appeal of the engraving. The Sulphur-coloured Ismene remains a popular subject among botanical enthusiasts and collectors, and this stunning handcolored copperplate engraving serves as a testament to its timeless allure. The intricate details captured in the illustration provide a fascinating glimpse into the rich history of botanical exploration and documentation.
