EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning chromolithograph showcases the Pride of India giant crepe-myrtle, or Lagerstroemia speciosa, as depicted in Emily Eden's "Flowers from an Indian Garden: Second Series: Hope." Eden, an English aristocratic writer, novelist, and traveler, accompanied her brother George in India from 1836 to 1842, and her botanical illustrations provide a vivid record of the exotic flora she encountered during her time there. The Pride of India giant crepe-myrtle is a magnificent tree native to southern Asia, characterized by its large, showy bunches of pink, purple, or white flowers that bloom profusely in late summer. The tree's elegant, slender branches are adorned with delicate, papery bark that peels away in ribbons, giving the tree its common name of crepe-myrtle. The Pride of India giant crepe-myrtle was a favorite among Victorian gardeners, and its beauty is captured in this exquisite chromolithograph. The intricate details of the flowers, leaves, and bark are rendered with exceptional precision and artistry, making this a true masterpiece of botanical art. Eden's poetic descriptions of the tree in her accompanying text further enhance our appreciation of its beauty and allure.
