EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning colored copper engraving captures the beauty of European ajonc, also known as spiny ajonc, in exquisite detail. The intricate lines and vibrant colors bring this botanical specimen to life, showcasing the skill and artistry of both the artist, C. Mathews, and the engraver.
The work is part of William Baxter's book "English Botanical Phenomenes" from 1834, where he meticulously documented various plant species. As the curator of the Oxford Botanical Garden for over four decades, Baxter was a respected figure in the world of botany during his time.
The image depicts Ulex europaeus, commonly known as common furze or gorse. Its spiky leaves and bright yellow flowers are accurately portrayed in this hand-colored copperplate engraving by Charles Mathews based on a drawing by Isaac Russell.
Through this print, we can appreciate not only the beauty of nature but also the dedication and expertise required to capture it so faithfully on paper. It serves as a reminder of our connection to the natural world and encourages us to cherish and protect its wonders for future generations to enjoy.
