EDITORS COMMENTS
1. Title: "Austrian Copper Rose and White Virgin Rose: A Floral Duo in 19th-Century Botanical Illustration" This handcoloured copperplate engraving, created by Stark from Friedrich Johann Bertuch's "Bilderbuch fur Kinder" (Picture Book for Children) published in Weimar in 1802, showcases the exquisite beauty of two rare roses: the Austrian copper rose (Rosa punicea) and the white virgin rose (Rosa truncata virginalis). The Austrian copper rose, also known as the Austrian copper lily or the Austrian moss rose, is depicted in its full splendor with its vibrant, copper-red petals that seem to shimmer under the light. The rose's name is derived from its coppery hue, which is reminiscent of the rich, red color of copper. This rare rose is native to the Alpine regions of Central Europe, making it a symbol of the Austrian mountains. The white virgin rose, on the other hand, boasts pristine, snow-white petals that contrast beautifully with the deep-red Austrian copper rose. Its scientific name, Rosa truncata virginalis, refers to its truncated (shortened) stems and its virginal (pure, white) color. This delicate rose is native to the Mediterranean region and is renowned for its fragrant, white flowers. This stunning botanical illustration, drawn from nature, offers a glimpse into the natural history of these rare roses and serves as a testament to the meticulous attention to detail and artistic skill of the 19th-century illustrator, Stark. The handcoloured copperplate engraving process, which involved etching the design onto a copper plate and then applying color by hand, further enhances the intricacy and beauty of the artwork. This image is a must-have for any botanical art collection or garden enthusiast's library.
