EDITORS COMMENTS
This exquisite handcoloured lithograph showcases the vibrant and captivating beauty of Tropaeolum polyphyllum, also known as the Chilean or Argentinean Nasturtium. Originating from the Andes mountains in Chile and Argentina, this stunning Nasturtium variety has long been admired for its unique and intricate appearance. The lithograph, taken from the esteemed horticultural publication "Flowers of the Gardens and Hothouses of Europe" by Louis van Houtte and Charles Lemaires, published in Ghent, Belgium in 1874, provides a detailed and accurate representation of the plant. The intricate veining and delicate petals of the Nasturtium's flowers are brought to life through the skilled use of handcolouring, adding depth and dimension to the otherwise two-dimensional image. The Nasturtium is a popular choice among gardeners and botanical enthusiasts for its hardiness and ability to thrive in various climates. Its bright, cheerful flowers come in a range of colors, from yellow and orange to red and pink, and are known to attract a variety of pollinators, making them an essential addition to any garden. The rich cultural history of the Nasturtium is reflected in the intricate and ornate design elements of the lithograph, including the delicate leaves and intricately patterned stems. This beautiful and intriguing plant continues to captivate and inspire, both in its natural habitat and in the pages of horticultural publications like this one.
