EDITORS COMMENTS
This hand-colored copperplate engraving showcases the timeless beauty of Pink and Crimson Everblooming Roses, Rosa semperflorens. The intricate detail of the illustration, drawn from nature by Stark, transports us back to the early 19th century, as featured in Friedrich Johann Bertuch's Bilderbuch fur Kinder (Picture Book for Children) published in Weimar, 1802. Rosa semperflorens, also known as the everblooming rose, is a charming and hardy species that graces gardens with its continuous blooming throughout the growing season. The roses in this print are depicted in their full glory, with their vibrant pink and crimson petals unfurling around delicate, golden centers. Each petal is meticulously rendered, revealing the artist's mastery of the medium. The engraving also highlights the thorny stems of the rose, adding a touch of realism and reminding us of the delicate balance between beauty and protection that these flowers possess. The botanical accuracy of the illustration is a testament to the educational purpose of the picture book, which aimed to teach children about the natural world. The hand-coloring technique adds an extra layer of depth and richness to the print, making the roses appear even more lifelike. The use of copperplate engraving, a popular method during the time, ensures that the details are crisp and the lines are clean. This beautiful and educational print is a reminder of the enduring allure of roses and the importance of preserving natural history through art.
