EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning chromolithograph depicts Aspidistra lurida, also known as the Lurid Aspidistra or Candelabra Aspidistra, a beautiful and hardy houseplant that was a popular addition to Victorian gardens and greenhouses. The illustration is taken from Edward Step's "Favourite Flowers of Garden and Greenhouse," published by Frederick Warne in London in 1896. The illustration was created by Desire Bois, a renowned botanical artist of the time. The Aspidistra lurida is shown in all its glory, with its large, glossy, and dark green leaves arranged in a candelabra-like fashion, giving the plant its common name. The plant's stems are shown to be arborescent, meaning they can grow into small trees, adding to its ornamental value. The plant is often compared to the Aloe family due to its succulent leaves and its ability to store water. The Victorian era was a time of great interest in horticulture and botanical illustration, and this chromolithograph is a testament to the beauty and intrigue that these plants held for collectors and gardeners of the time. The rich colors and intricate details of the illustration bring the plant to life, making it a valuable addition to any botanical collection or garden-themed decor. The Aspidistra lurida remains a popular houseplant today due to its hardiness and ability to thrive in low-light conditions, making it a great choice for those looking to add a touch of greenery to their indoor spaces. This beautiful and intricately detailed illustration serves as a reminder of the enduring appeal of these plants and the importance of preserving botanical illustrations as a record of the natural world.
