EDITORS COMMENTS
1. Title: Bladder Campion - Silene vulgaris, Silene inflata, Silene renfle This exquisite hand-coloured steel engraving depicts the Bladder Campion, also known by its alternative names Silene vulgaris, Silene inflata, and Silene renfle. The botanical illustration was originally created by Edouard Maubert and later meticulously rendered in engraving by Alphonse-Leon Noel. This beautiful artwork was published as part of the comprehensive botanical work "La Regne Vegetal: Flore Medicale" by Pierre Oscar Reveil, A. Dupuis, Fr. Gerard, and Francois Herincqs between 1864 and 1871. The Bladder Campion is a common European wildflower, characterized by its distinctive bladder-like structures found at the base of the stem, which help the plant to absorb water. The engraving captures the intricate details of the plant's various parts, including its lobed leaves, bell-shaped flowers, and the long, slender stems. The delicate shading and vibrant colours used in the hand-colouring process further enhance the botanical accuracy and aesthetic appeal of the artwork. This engraving serves as a testament to the remarkable botanical illustration techniques and the dedication of the artists and scientists involved in the production of "La Regne Vegetal: Flore Medicale." It offers a fascinating glimpse into the natural world and the meticulous methods used to document and preserve the beauty and diversity of plants during the 19th century.
