EDITORS COMMENTS
This exquisite handcoloured copperplate engraving, created by George Cooke after Miss Rebello's original observation, showcases the captivating beauty of the American Viburnum, Lantana mista. Dated back to 1817, this illustration was produced at Conrad Loddiges Botanical Cabinet in Hackney, England. The intricate details of the Viburnum's delicate petals, glossy leaves, and intricate veining are masterfully captured in this engraving, making it a true testament to the artistic skill and dedication of the time. The American Viburnum, Lantana mista, also known as the Confused Viburnum, is a native plant of the southeastern United States. It is a deciduous shrub that can grow up to 15 feet tall and is characterized by its clusters of white, pink, or purple flowers that bloom in late spring. The plant's name, "mista," refers to the fact that its flowers can be a mix of colors on the same plant. This illustration offers a glimpse into the past, providing a window into the world of botanical exploration and documentation during the early 19th century. The meticulous attention to detail and the use of handcoloring techniques add depth and vibrancy to the image, making it a prized possession for any botanical enthusiast or collector. The American Viburnum, Lantana mista, remains a beloved plant today, appreciated for its beauty and historical significance.
