EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning chromolithograph depicts the Wild Date Palm, Phoenix reclinata, also known as the Senegal Date Palm or Spiny Date Palm. The broad, fan-shaped leaves of this palm tree are a striking contrast against the vibrant background, with their rich green hue and intricate veining. The lady in the illustration adds a touch of elegance and scale, as she gracefully leans against the bamboo canes, surrounded by other exotic plants such as the Rhapis excelsa and Trachycarpus excelsus. The Wild Date Palm is native to the arid regions of Africa and the Middle East, and is characterized by its spiny trunk and pinnate leaves. It is a popular ornamental plant in tropical gardens, and is admired for its ability to thrive in harsh conditions. The palm's large, sweet fruits are also a valuable source of food and water for both humans and wildlife. This illustration is from Edward Step's "Favourite Flowers of Garden and Greenhouse," published by Frederick Warne in London in 1896. The work of Desire Bois, a renowned botanical illustrator of the Victorian era, is showcased in this exquisite chromolithograph. Bois' meticulous attention to detail and use of vibrant colors bring the beauty of these plants to life, transporting us to a time when gardening and horticulture were celebrated as essential aspects of daily life.
