EDITORS COMMENTS
This exquisite illustration showcases a stunning bouquet of wild flowers, artfully arranged and beautifully rendered in color by Clarissa Badger, nee Munger, for her publication "Wild Flowers, Drawn and Colored from Nature," published in New York in 1859. The bouquet includes a variety of blooms, each one showcasing its unique beauty and character. At the center of the arrangement stands a tall, graceful tulip tree (Liriodendron tulipifera), its vibrant yellow flowers adding a warm and sunny touch to the composition. Surrounding the tulip tree are delicate wild roses (Rosa spp.), their pink and crimson petals unfurled and inviting, adding a romantic and feminine element to the bouquet. Other flowers in the arrangement include the cardinal flower (Lobelia cardinalis), with its distinctive red bells, the harebells (Campanula rotundifolia), their delicate blue blooms cascading gracefully, and the wood lily (Clintonia borealis), with its elegant white and green bells. Each flower is rendered in intricate detail, capturing their natural beauty and charm. The illustration, handcolored and lithographed, is a testament to the artistry and skill of Clarissa Badger, who dedicated herself to accurately depicting the wonders of the natural world. This historical botanical illustration is a treasure for anyone interested in the history of botanical art, wildflowers, or the beauty of nature.
