EDITORS COMMENTS
This exquisite illustration showcases the enchanting Camellia japonica woodsii, a captivating member of the Theaceae family, in all its Victorian-era glory. Drawn by the skilled hand of Alfred Chandler and described by the botanical expert William Beattie Booth, this illustration was published in the seminal work "Illustrations & descriptions of Camellias" in 1831. The Camellia japonica woodsii, commonly known as the Common Camellia or the Japanese Camellia, is a beautiful flowering plant that belongs to the order Ericales, the subclass Asterid, and the superclass Magnoliophyta. It is an angiosperm, a type of seed-producing flowering plant, and a dicot, meaning it has two cotyledons or seed leaves. This particular Camellia japonica variety boasts delicate pink blooms that add a touch of elegance and allure to any garden or greenhouse. The Camellia japonica is native to East Asia, specifically Japan, and has been cultivated for its ornamental value for centuries. The intricate details of the Camellia japonica woodsii's petals, veins, and stamens are expertly captured in this nineteenth-century drawing. The illustration provides a fascinating glimpse into the botanical world of the past, showcasing the meticulous attention to detail and scientific accuracy that defined the Victorian era's botanical illustrations. This illustration is a testament to the enduring beauty and significance of the Camellia japonica, a beloved flower that continues to captivate and inspire gardeners and botanists alike. The collaboration between Booth and Chandler resulted in a stunning visual record of this remarkable plant, preserving its essence for generations to come.
