Pink red ragged robin wildflower Victorian botanical illustration by Anne Pratt
Pink / red wildflower. Ragged robin, Lychnis flos-cuculi, spread with agriculture to grow near people. Forest pastures, shores, peatland meadows and open field ditches gave ragged robin many places to grow in. Changes in agriculture mean that the species has become rare. Anne Pratt (1806 - 1893) was a self-taught botanical and ornithological illustrator and author from Strood, Kent. This print is from the book " Wild Flowers", printed in 1893 by SPCK (the Society for the Propagation of Christian Knowledge)

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a stunning Victorian botanical illustration by the talented Anne Pratt. The delicate pink and red hues of the ragged robin wildflower, scientifically known as Lychnis flos-cuculi, are beautifully captured in this artwork. Ragged robin is a versatile flower that has spread with agriculture to various habitats such as forest pastures, shores, peatland meadows, and open field ditches. However, changes in agricultural practices have unfortunately led to its decline and rarity in recent times. Anne Pratt was an exceptional self-taught illustrator and author who hailed from Strood, Kent. Her expertise extended not only to botanical illustrations but also ornithology. This particular print is sourced from her book "Wild Flowers" which was printed in 1893 by SPCK (the Society for the Propagation of Christian Knowledge). The intricate details and lifelike depiction of the ragged robin make this illustration a true testament to Anne Pratt's talent and dedication to capturing nature's beauty on paper. As you admire this print, let it serve as a reminder of both the fragility of our natural world and the importance of preserving these precious species.
