EDITORS COMMENTS
This exquisite hand-colored copperplate engraving showcases the enchanting beauty of the Dogtooth Violet, Erythronium dens-canis. The intricate detail in this botanical illustration, created by Edwin Dalton Smith and engraved by Weddell for John Lindley and Robert Sweet's "Ornamental Flower Garden and Shrubbery," published in London in 1854, allows us to appreciate the delicate features of this unique flower. The Dogtooth Violet, also known as the Oval-leaved Dog's-tooth Violet, is a native wildflower of North America, primarily found in wooded areas of the eastern United States and southern Canada. Its common name derives from the distinctive tooth-like markings on the edges of its leaves, which resemble the teeth of a dog. The flower itself is a delightful sight, with its nodding, bell-shaped blooms emerging in early spring before the leaves. The flowers display a striking contrast between their white petals and the prominent yellow-green markings on the inner surface of the tepals. The plant's elegant oval leaves, which are often tinged with purple, provide a perfect backdrop for the delicate flowers. This botanical illustration serves as a testament to the artistry and dedication of the 19th-century botanical community. The meticulous process of hand-coloring each print ensured that the true colors and intricacies of the Dogtooth Violet were accurately represented, making this an invaluable resource for both scientific study and aesthetic appreciation.
