Amaryllis Formosissima Petal Petals


EDITORS COMMENTS
Amaryllis Formosissima, also known as the Jacobaean Amaryllis, is a stunning and captivating flower that has enchanted gardeners and admirers for centuries. This exquisite hand-coloured print, dating back to the early 19th century, showcases the beauty and elegance of this remarkable plant in its full glory. The Amaryllis Formosissima is a bulbous perennial that produces large, dark red flowers with distinctive green leaves. The dark red petals, each adorned with a white blotch at the base, fan out gracefully from the central column, creating a mesmerizing display. The contrast between the rich, velvety red and the vibrant green leaves adds depth and texture to the image. This beautiful flower was a popular subject for botanical illustrators during the Victorian era, and this print is a testament to their skill and dedication. The intricate details of the petals, veins on the leaves, and the subtle shading of the colours all contribute to the lifelike quality of the image. The Amaryllis Formosissima is native to South America and was first introduced to Europe in the late 16th century. It has since become a beloved plant in gardens around the world, and is often grown for its spectacular blooms. The name "Jacobaean Amaryllis" refers to the belief that the plant was first discovered by the botanist Jacobo Grimaldi de la Cortina in the early 17th century. This print is a reminder of the beauty and wonder of nature, and a testament to the artistry of the botanical illustrators of the past. It invites us to appreciate the intricacies of the natural world and to marvel at the beauty of the Amaryllis Formosissima, a true gem among flowers.
