EDITORS COMMENTS
This handcoloured lithograph showcases a stunning array of Nasturtium varieties, specifically Tropaeolum x zanderi grandiflorum and Tropaeolum x zipseri splendens. The intricate details of the flowers are brought to life through the skilled use of vibrant colors, capturing their allure and charm. Nasturtiums, also known as Tropaeolum, are a popular and beloved group of annual plants, prized for their attractive foliage and vibrant, often bi-colored flowers. The Nasturtiums depicted in this print are no exception, with their large, radiant blooms adding a burst of color to any garden or hothouse. Tropaeolum x zanderi grandiflorum, also known as Grandiflora Nasturtium, is a hybrid variety that boasts large, double flowers in shades of orange, red, and yellow. The flowers are often described as having a sweet, peppery scent, making them a delight for the senses. Tropaeolum x zipseri splendens, also known as the Jewel of Persia or the Persian Nasturtium, is another beautiful hybrid variety. Its flowers are characterized by their bi-colored petals, which are often a striking combination of red and yellow or orange and red. The plant's foliage is also notable for its unique, lobed shape. This exquisite print is from the renowned horticultural publication "Flowers of the Gardens and Hothouses of Europe," published by Louis van Houtte and Charles Lemaires in Ghent, Belgium, in 1857. The publication was known for its high-quality, handcoloured lithographs, which showcased a wide range of plants from Europe and beyond. This particular print is a testament to the beauty and diversity of Nasturtiums and the artistry of the publication's creators.
