EDITORS COMMENTS
This exquisite handcolored illustration showcases the crimson-hued blooms of the Rhododendron arboreum, a magnificent rhododendron species native to the Eastern Himalayas and southern China. The illustration, created by the skilled botanical artist Edwin Dalton Smith and expertly engraved by F.W. Smith, is taken from Charles McIntosh's esteemed horticultural publication, "Flora and Pomona," published in 1829. Charles McIntosh (1794-1864), a Scottish gardener, was renowned for his work with European aristocracy and royalty. His extensive knowledge of horticulture was showcased in numerous books, including "Flora and Pomona," which was widely regarded as a significant contribution to the field. Edwin Dalton Smith, a talented botanical artist, was a frequent collaborator of Robert Sweet and Benjamin Maund. His meticulous drawings were highly sought after for their accuracy and beauty. The intricate details of the rhododendron's crimson petals, veins, and stamen are beautifully captured in this illustration. The rhododendron, a member of the Ericaceae family, is known for its showy flowers and evergreen foliage. The crimson-flowered Rhododendron arboreum is particularly prized for its vibrant blooms, which can reach up to 5 inches in diameter. This illustration provides a stunning and historical record of this beloved plant, transporting us back to the 19th century when botanical discoveries were a source of great fascination and inspiration.
