EDITORS COMMENTS
This exquisite handcoloured lithograph showcases the Field Gladiolus, Gladiolus italicus, also known as Gladiolus segetum. The image is taken from Diederich von Schlechtendal's renowned botanical work, "Flora von Deutschland" published in Jena, Germany, in 1871. The Field Gladiolus is a native plant of the Mediterranean region, characterized by its tall spike of vibrant, funnel-shaped flowers. The flowers bloom in shades of pink, purple, and white, with each flower sitting atop a long, slender stalk. The intricate details of the petals, veins, and stamens are beautifully captured in this handcoloured lithograph, making it a stunning addition to any botanical collection. The Field Gladiolus was once commonly found in fields and meadows, but today it is considered a rare and endangered species in many areas. This illustration serves as a testament to its beauty and significance in the natural world.
