EDITORS COMMENTS
This beautiful illustration showcases the exquisite Scarlet Camellia, Madame Rudolphe Abel, or Thea japonica, a beloved flower in the camellia family. The illustration, created by the skilled hands of P. Stroobant and expertly lithographed by L. Stroobant, was published in Jean Linden's Illustration Horticole during the 1880s. The publication, which was published by Ambroise Vershaffelt, was a prominent horticultural journal of the time, showcasing the latest botanical discoveries and advancements. Madame Rudolphe Abel is a stunning cultivar of the camellia, characterized by its vibrant scarlet-red blooms. The elegant petals unfurl in perfect symmetry, revealing a rich, velvety texture that is a feast for the eyes. The camellia is native to Eastern Asia, specifically Japan, and has been cultivated for centuries for its beauty and symbolism. In Japan, the camellia is considered a symbol of love and admiration, making it a popular choice for gift-giving and decorative purposes. This illustration is a testament to the artistry and dedication of the Stroobant brothers and Jean Linden, who worked tirelessly to capture the essence of this magnificent flower. The intricate details and vibrant colors bring the camellia to life, allowing us to appreciate its beauty and allure from the comfort of our own homes. The historical significance of this illustration lies not only in its exquisite artistry but also in its contribution to the advancement of botanical knowledge during the late 19th century.
