EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Roses, 1799" transports us back to the enchanting world of English gardens in the late 18th century. Created by Richard Earlom in 1944, this illustration beautifully captures a scene from Robert John Thornton's renowned work "Temple of Flora or Garden of Nature". The image showcases a delicate nest nestled among an array of vibrant roses, depicting nature's harmonious coexistence. The attention to detail is remarkable as we observe birds diligently guarding their precious eggs amidst the variegated petals. A dragonfly gracefully hovers nearby, adding an element of whimsy to this botanical masterpiece. This print not only celebrates the beauty and diversity found within British flora but also provides insight into the scientific exploration that took place during this era. Published in "English Gardens" by Harry Roberts and released by Collins London in 1944, this artwork reflects both natural history and social history intertwined with horticulture. It serves as a testament to the meticulous engravings produced during that time period. As we admire this still life composition captured on paper, we are reminded of our connection with nature and its intricate wonders. The collaboration between Richard Earlom and Robert John Thornton brings forth a timeless piece that continues to inspire awe even decades later.
