EDITORS COMMENTS
This exquisite handcoloured steel engraving depicts the European white water lily, Nymphaea alba, also known as Nymphea blanc or rose nenuphar, in its full botanical glory. The image is a meticulous reproduction of an original botanical illustration by Edouard Maubert, created as part of the comprehensive work "La Regne Vegetal: Flore Medicale" published by Pierre Oscar Reveil, A. Dupuis, Fr. Gerard, and Francois Herincqs between 1864 and 1871. The European white water lily is a beautiful aquatic plant native to Europe, Western Asia, and North America. Its large, circular leaves, which can reach up to 1 meter in diameter, float on the water surface, while its white or pink flowers bloom above the water. These flowers are renowned for their delicate beauty and sweet fragrance, attracting various pollinators. The intricate details of the European white water lily's anatomy are captured with remarkable precision in this engraving. The veins on the leaves, the delicate petals of the flower, and the intricate structures of the reproductive organs are all rendered with great care and attention to detail. The use of handcolouring adds an additional layer of depth and vibrancy to the image, making it a true masterpiece of botanical art. This engraving is not only a testament to the beauty and intricacy of the European white water lily but also a valuable historical record of botanical research during the 19th century. It serves as a reminder of the importance of documenting the natural world and the role that botanical illustrations play in advancing our understanding of the plant kingdom.
