EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning handcoloured lithograph depicts the Blue Nasturtium, Tropaeoleum azureum (also referred to as Tropaeoleum azureum grandiflorum), a captivating and rare beauty from the Peruvian Andes. The image is taken from the horticultural masterpiece, "Flowers of the Gardens and Hothouses of Europe," published in Ghent, Belgium, in 1856 by Louis van Houtte and Charles Lemaires. The Blue Nasturtium, with its vibrant, azure-blue flowers and intricately lobed leaves, is a striking contrast to the more commonly known yellow and orange varieties of Nasturtium. This lithograph showcases the plant in all its splendor, with each delicate petal and vein meticulously rendered in rich, vibrant colors. The Blue Nasturtium was a prized addition to the European hothouses of the 19th century, as it was not only a visual delight but also believed to have medicinal properties. The plant's leaves were used to add a peppery flavor to salads and other dishes, making it a popular culinary ingredient as well. This botanical illustration is a testament to the artistry and scientific precision of the time, providing a window into the world of exotic plants that captivated the imaginations of horticulturists and naturalists alike. The intricate details and lifelike quality of the image make it a valuable addition to any botanical collection or garden-themed decor.
