EDITORS COMMENTS
This beautiful hand-colored copperplate engraving, created by S. Watts after an illustration by Sarah Drake for the Botanical Register published by Sydenham Edwards in Ridgeway, London in 1832, showcases the exquisite Camassia quamash, also known as Camash or Eatable Camassia. The Camassia quamash is a native bulbous perennial plant native to the Pacific Northwest region of North America, specifically in the coastal areas of British Columbia, Washington, Oregon, and California. The plant is renowned for its stunning, large, blue-violet flowers that bloom in clusters, creating a breathtaking display in the spring. The Camassia quamash was an essential food source for Native American tribes in the Pacific Northwest, who would dig up the bulbs in the fall and eat them either raw or cooked. The bulbs were a staple food and were often harvested in large quantities for winter storage. The intricate detail in this engraving highlights the delicate beauty of the Camassia quamash, with its slender, strap-shaped leaves and elegant, bell-shaped flowers. The hand-coloring adds an extra layer of vibrancy and depth to the image, making it a true work of art. This engraving is not only a beautiful addition to any botanical collection but also serves as a reminder of the rich cultural history of the Pacific Northwest and the importance of the Camassia quamash to the indigenous communities who have lived in the region for thousands of years.
