EDITORS COMMENTS
This exquisite hand-colored copperplate engraving showcases the enchanting beauty of the Peruvian daffodil, Ismene pedunculata, also known as Mr. McLeans amancaes or Ismene macleana. The botanical illustration was meticulously created by Walter Fitch and published in William Jackson Hooker's esteemed Botanical Magazine in London in 1838. The Peruvian daffodil is a rare and captivating plant native to the Andes Mountains in South America. Unlike the common daffodil, this species boasts large, bell-shaped, fragrant flowers that bloom in various shades of pink, purple, and white. The flowers are borne on long, slender stems, adding to their elegant display. The intricate details of the Peruvian daffodil's petals, leaves, and stem are masterfully captured in this engraving, revealing the delicate intricacies of its structure. The vibrant colors used in the hand-coloring process bring the flower to life, highlighting its unique features and allure. The Peruvian daffodil holds a special place in the annals of botanical history, as it was one of the many exotic plants discovered during the European exploration and colonization of South America. Its discovery and documentation were significant contributions to the expanding knowledge of the natural world during the 19th century. This beautiful engraving serves as a testament to the artistry and scientific curiosity of the time, offering a glimpse into the rich diversity of the plant kingdom and the passion for botanical exploration that drove the scientific community during the Victorian era.
