EDITORS COMMENTS
This exquisite handcoloured lithograph depicts the enchanting Fairy Lantern, Calochortus albus, also known as Cyclobothra alba. The image is taken from the renowned horticultural publication, "Flowers of the Gardens and Hothouses of Europe," published by Louis van Houtte and Charles Lemaires in Ghent, Belgium, in 1856. The Fairy Lantern is a rare and beautiful bulbous plant native to California, United States. It is characterized by its unique, translucent, lantern-shaped flowers that bloom in the spring. The delicate, white petals are adorned with intricate purple veins, giving the appearance of a lantern with a flickering flame. The plant grows in woodlands and grasslands, and its vibrant blooms are a welcome sight after the winter rains. The meticulous attention to detail in this lithograph is evident in the intricate rendering of the Fairy Lantern's petals, veins, and stamen. The background is adorned with lush greenery, adding to the overall sense of beauty and wonder. The handcolouring adds an extra layer of depth and richness to the image, making it a true masterpiece of botanical art. This lithograph is a testament to the beauty and diversity of the natural world, and a reminder of the importance of preserving and celebrating rare and unique plant species. It is a must-have for any botanical art collection, and a beautiful addition to any home or office. Whether used as a decorative piece or as a source of inspiration, this image of the Fairy Lantern is sure to captivate and delight.
