EDITORS COMMENTS
This chromolithograph, published in 1895, showcases the exquisite beauty of magnoliids. The print features three distinct species, each captured with remarkable detail and precision. In the foreground, we are introduced to the sea-buckthorn (Hippophae rhamnoides), a shrub renowned for its vibrant orange fruits. A branch adorned with these luscious berries takes center stage, while another branch displays delicate male blossoms. This depiction truly highlights the plant's dual nature - both fruitful and flowering. Moving towards the middle of the composition, we encounter the majestic bay tree (Laurus nobilis). Its branches gracefully showcase male blossoms alongside an elegant female blossom. The artist skillfully captures their intricate forms and textures, inviting us to appreciate their subtle differences. Finally, our attention is drawn to the field bastard toadflax (Thesium humile or Thesium montanum). With meticulous attention to detail, this section reveals a single blossom alongside an enlarged fruit. The contrast between these two stages of growth adds depth and intrigue to this botanical masterpiece. Created using chromolithography techniques popular during that era, this print by ZU_09 exemplifies both scientific accuracy and artistic finesse. It serves as a testament to humanity's enduring fascination with nature's wonders and reminds us of our connection to these magnificent plants from times long past.
