EDITORS COMMENTS
Amidst the vibrant hues of spring, this enchanting chromolithograph by Louis Prang showcases the radiant beauty of Daffodils, scientifically known as Narcissus pseudonarcissus. The intricate design, taken from Alice Ward Bailey's Flower Fancies published in Boston in 1889, is a visual feast for the senses. The image is adorned with an elegant calligraphic poem that reads, "Golden daffodils, beside the lake, beneath the trees, flutter and dance in the breeze. Softly blowing, the wind whispers secrets to the petals as they sway, basking in the warm embrace of the sun. The illustration is a testament to the Art Nouveau and Victorian styles that dominated the late 19th century. The delicate details of the daffodils are brought to life by the skilled hands of artists Lucy Baily, Eleanor Ecob Morse, Olive Whitney, Ellen Fisher, Fidelia Bridges, C. Ryan, and F. Schuyler Mathews. Their collaborative efforts result in a harmonious blend of art and nature, inviting us to revel in the simple joys of the season. The golden hues of the daffodils symbolize rebirth, renewal, and the promise of new beginnings. As we gaze upon this print, we are transported to a world where the beauty of nature reigns supreme, and the passing of the seasons is celebrated in all its glory.
