EDITORS COMMENTS
This hand-coloured engraving, titled "Wallflower (Keiri, Cheiri)" by Nikolaus Friedrich Eisenberger, transports us back to the mid-eighteenth century. Measuring 36x23 cm and part of a private collection, this exquisite print is a true testament to the beauty and precision of botanical illustrations from that era. Originally published around 1750-1765 as Plate 179 in Elizabeth Blackwell's renowned Herbarium Blackwellianum emendatum et auctum, this particular artwork showcases the delicate yellow flowerhead of the wallflower. The attention to detail is remarkable; every petal is meticulously rendered with vibrant hand-tinted colours. Eisenberger's skillful hand has brought this wallflower to life on paper. The close-up composition allows us to appreciate its intricate structure and subtle nuances. With no human presence in sight, our focus remains solely on the natural wonder before us. The significance of this piece extends beyond its aesthetic appeal. It serves as an important document within botany and biology studies during that time period. Its inclusion in Blackwell's herbarium underscores its scientific value as well. As we gaze upon this enchanting illustration from centuries past, we are reminded of the timeless allure of nature captured through artistry and meticulous observation. This print stands as a testament not only to Eisenberger's talent but also to the enduring legacy left by botanists like Elizabeth Blackwell who dedicated their lives to understanding and preserving our natural world.
