EDITORS COMMENTS
This exquisite hand-colored lithograph showcases the enchanting beauty of the Geranium variety, Miss Pollock, also known as Pelargonium zonale 'Miss Pollock' with variegated foliage. The image is taken from the esteemed horticultural publication, "Flowers of the Gardens and Hothouses of Europe," produced by Louis van Houtte and Charles Lemaires in Ghent, Belgium between 1862 and 1865. Miss Pollock is a captivating geranium, with its velvety, richly colored blooms that range from deep pink to magenta, adorning the plant in abundance. However, it is the foliage that sets this variety apart, with its striking variegation of green and cream hues. The intricate detailing of the leaves, veins, and petals in this lithograph is a testament to the meticulous craftsmanship and dedication of the artists involved in creating this masterpiece. The publication, "Flowers of the Gardens and Hothouses of Europe," was a groundbreaking work in its time, featuring an extensive collection of botanical illustrations from Europe and beyond. It was a must-have resource for horticulturists, botanists, and enthusiasts alike, showcasing the latest advances in plant cultivation and discovery. This particular image of Miss Pollock is a rare and beautiful reminder of the rich history of botanical illustration and the enduring allure of the Geranium variety. With its vibrant colors and intricate detailing, it continues to captivate and inspire, offering a glimpse into the horticultural wonders of the past.
