EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning handcoloured steel engraving depicts the Yellow Water-lily, Nuphar lutea, also known as Nenuphar lutea or Nenuphar jaune, in all its beauty. The image is a meticulous reproduction of a botanical illustration by Edouard Maubert, created for the prestigious work "La Regne Vegetal: Flore Medicale" published by Pierre Oscar Reveil, A. Dupuis, Fr. Gerard and Francois Herincqs between 1864 and 1871 in Paris. The Yellow Water-lily is a remarkable aquatic plant native to Europe, Asia, and North America. Its large, circular, yellow flowers float on the water surface, providing a vibrant contrast against the calm waters. The plant's roots anchor it to the river or lake bottom, while its leaves and flowers emerge from the water, creating a captivating sight. The intricate details of the Yellow Water-lily's anatomy are masterfully captured in this engraving. Each petal, vein, and stem is meticulously rendered, showcasing the exquisite artistry of the illustrator and engraver. The handcolouring further enhances the image, adding depth and richness to the already impressive details. This engraving is a testament to the dedication and expertise of the botanical community during the 19th century. It serves as a valuable record of the natural world and a reminder of the beauty that can be found in the most unexpected places, such as the surface of a tranquil body of water.
