EDITORS COMMENTS
This handfinished chromolithograph by Henry Noel Humphreys, after an illustration by Jane Loudon, showcases the enchanting beauty of various Foxglove (Digitalis) species. The print, taken from Mrs. Jane Loudon's Ladies Flower Garden of Ornamental Perennials, published in London in 1849, features an exquisite arrangement of Canary Island Foxglove (Digitalis canariensis), Large Yellow Foxglove (Digitalis ambigua), Purple Foxglove (Digitalis purpurea), Cut-leaved Foxglove (Digitalis laciniata), and Yellow Foxglove (Digitalis lutea). The Canary Island Foxglove, with its distinctive bell-shaped, tubular flowers in shades of pink and purple, is native to the Canary Islands and is renowned for its elegant stature. The Large Yellow Foxglove, also known as the Hedge Foxglove, boasts vibrant yellow flowers and is commonly found in the British Isles. The Purple Foxglove, a favorite among gardeners, is known for its tall spikes of bell-shaped, purplish-blue flowers. The Cut-leaved Foxglove, with its unique, lobed leaves, adds texture and contrast to the arrangement. Lastly, the Yellow Foxglove, with its bright, sunny blooms, brings a cheerful note to the composition. This stunning lithograph, created by Henry Noel Humphreys and Jane Loudon, captures the essence of these captivating Foxglove species, inviting us to appreciate their intricate details and allure. The intricate process of chromolithography, which involves the transfer of color from separate stones, adds depth and vibrancy to the print, making it a true work of art.
