EDITORS COMMENTS
This exquisite hand-colored copperplate engraving showcases the Double Upright Crowfoot, Ranunculus acris flore pleno, a charming and elegant flowering plant from the Ranunculus genus. Created by the skilled hand of engraver Sansom for the esteemed Botanical Magazine in London during the year 1793, this illustration captures the beauty and intricacy of the Double Upright Crowfoot in its prime. The Double Upright Crowfoot, also known as the Double Butter-and-Cheese, is a popular variety of Ranunculus acris, commonly found in Europe and Asia. This plant is characterized by its low-growing, creeping rhizomes and bright green foliage, which produces clusters of delicate, cup-shaped flowers. The Double Upright Crowfoot's flowers are notable for their double petals, which come in various shades of pink, red, white, and yellow. The meticulous detail in this engraving highlights the intricate veining on the leaves and the delicate layers of petals on the flower. The hand-coloring adds a vibrant and lifelike quality to the illustration, enhancing the beauty of the Double Upright Crowfoot. This engraving is a testament to the dedication and expertise of the Botanical Magazine and its contributors, who sought to accurately document and preserve the natural world for future generations. The Double Upright Crowfoot is a beloved addition to many gardens, and its enchanting blooms continue to captivate gardeners and botanists alike. This stunning illustration serves as a reminder of the rich history of botanical art and the importance of preserving and celebrating the natural world.
