EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning handcoloured lithograph showcases the captivating beauty of Gaillardia grandiflora, commonly known as the Blanket Flower. The image is taken from the horticultural masterpiece, "Flore des Serres et des Jardins de l'Europe" (Flowers of the Gardens and Hothouses of Europe), published in Ghent, Belgium, in 1857 by Louis van Houtte and Charles Lemaires. The Blanket Flower is a vibrant and eye-catching perennial, native to North America, that boasts bright, daisy-like blooms with rich, velvety petals in shades of red, orange, and yellow. The intricate detailing and vivid colors of this chromolithograph perfectly capture the allure of this beloved flower. The Blanket Flower gained its common name due to the way its petals spread out, covering the ground like a blanket. This botanical illustration not only serves as a testament to the artistic prowess of the time but also highlights the importance of horticulture and botanical exploration during the 19th century. The delicate brushstrokes and rich colors bring the beauty of nature into the homes and greenhouses of Europe, making it a cherished addition to any collection of botanical illustrations.
