EDITORS COMMENTS
This exquisite hand-colored etching showcases the enchanting beauty of the Hybrid Garden Anemone or Pasqueflower, Pulsatilla vulgaris. Dating back to 1776, this rare and precious piece is taken from Pierre Joseph Buchoz's Collection Precieuse et enluminee des fleurs les plus belles et les plus curieuses, which was renowned for its meticulous documentation of the most beautiful and intriguing flowers cultivated in both Chinese and European gardens. The Hybrid Garden Anemone, also known as the Pasqueflower, is a charming perennial herb belonging to the Anemone family. Its captivating double violet blooms, depicted in this etching, are a delightful sight to behold. The delicate petals, intricately detailed in the etching, unfurl to reveal their velvety texture and rich coloration. The plant's name, Pulsatilla vulgaris, is derived from the Latin words 'pulsatilla' meaning little pulsing, and 'vulgaris' meaning common, referring to its widespread cultivation and the pulsating sensation felt when the stem is gently touched. This stunning etching not only serves as a testament to the artistic prowess of the time but also highlights the enduring allure of the natural world. The intricacy and detail captured in the etching are a reflection of the passion and dedication of the botanical illustrators and collectors of the era. The Hybrid Garden Anemone continues to captivate gardeners and nature enthusiasts alike, making this etching a timeless treasure that transports us back to a bygone era.
