EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Ferns (chromolitho)" takes us back to the 19th century, immersing us in the world of horticulture and gardening. The image showcases a stunning collection of ferns meticulously illustrated by Gertrude Hamilton, a talented artist from that era. The intricate details and vibrant colors captured in this chromolithograph transport us to a time when flower growing was both an art form and a passion. These delicate plants, including Osmunda Palustris, Davallia Veitchiana, Adiantum Rubellum, Chrysophylla, Adiantum Farleyense, Davallia Retusa, Gleichenia Speluncae, Gymnogramma Peruviana among others are beautifully depicted with utmost precision. This historical piece is not just about botanical beauty; it also represents the dedication and expertise required for successful gardening during the 19th century. It serves as a reminder of how our ancestors appreciated nature's wonders and sought to cultivate them within their own gardens. Preserved in a private collection until now, this print was originally created as an illustration for John Wright's book "The Flower Growers Guide" published by Virtue around 1898. Its inclusion in such literature highlights its significance as an educational tool for aspiring gardeners of that time. As we gaze upon this remarkable artwork from Bridgeman Images' Fine Art Finder collection today, we can't help but be inspired by the timeless allure of
