EDITORS COMMENTS
This exquisite hand-colored copperplate engraving showcases the vibrant beauty of the Scarlet Monkeyflower or Cardinal Monkeyflower (Mimulus cardinalis), a captivating flower native to the western United States. The botanical illustration was meticulously created by the skilled hand of Mrs. Augusta Withers and published in Benjamin Maund and the Reverend John Stevens Henslow's esteemed publication, "The Botanist," in London during 1836. Mrs. Withers' intricate and detailed rendering of the Scarlet Monkeyflower captures its alluring scarlet red petals, which unfurl from a bell-shaped calyx, revealing their radiant hue. The flower's distinctive yellow throat adds a striking contrast, making it a true standout in any Victorian garden or botanical collection. The Scarlet Monkeyflower is a member of the Mimulus genus, which is known for its diverse range of species, many of which display intriguing adaptations. This particular species is named Mimulus cardinalis, reflecting the brilliant red coloration of its petals. The botanical illustration was produced during the Victorian era, a time when the study and documentation of plants was a popular pastime among the affluent classes. The intricate and detailed engravings produced during this period were highly sought after for their aesthetic value and scientific accuracy. Mrs. Withers' masterful illustration of the Scarlet Monkeyflower is a testament to the beauty and intrigue of the natural world, and serves as a reminder of the importance of botanical exploration and documentation. This enchanting image invites us to appreciate the delicate balance of colors, shapes, and forms that make up the natural world, and to marvel at the artistry and skill of those who captured them for future generations to enjoy.
