EDITORS COMMENTS
This exquisite hand-coloured copperplate engraving, created by George Barclay after an illustration by William Herbert, showcases a charming selection of daffodil varieties as they were documented in the mid-19th century. The Botanical Register, edited by John Lindley, published this illustration in London by Ridgeway in 1847. The first daffodil depicted is Narcissus obsoletus, with its simple, yellow flowers and slender, green leaves. The second variety, Narcissus flavus, boasts bright yellow blooms and distinctive, narrow leaves. The third daffodil, Narcissus cavanillesii, is characterized by its delicate, bell-shaped, creamy-white flowers adorned with orange-red cups. Additional varieties represented in this enchanting illustration include Narcissus deficiens, Narcissus juncifolius, Narcissus hermione, Narcissus obsoleta, Narcissus tapeinospilos, and Narcissus humilis. Each variety showcases unique characteristics in their blooms and foliage, making for a visually stunning display. The intricate details of each daffodil are beautifully captured in this engraving, providing a glimpse into the rich history of these beloved spring flowers. The meticulous hand-colouring adds depth and vibrancy, enhancing the natural beauty of the daffodils and making this an essential addition to any botanical art collection.
