EDITORS COMMENTS
This chromolithograph, titled "New Varieties of Carnations," showcases an enchanting collection of carnation blooms from the esteemed garden of Baron Pycke de ten Aerde. The image, published in Jean Linden's Illustration Horticole in Brussels during 1885, was produced by the renowned lithographer Pieter de Pannemaeker. In the foreground, we find an assortment of new and bizarre carnation cultivars, their vibrant petals unfurling in a riot of colors and forms. The intricate detailing of each blossom is a testament to the meticulous care and dedication of the horticulturists of the time. Surrounding the carnations are four distinguished individuals, each contributing to the world of horticulture. Rodolphe Coumont, President Jules Malou, Directeur Emile Rodigas, Madame J. Linden, and Madame D. vanden Hove are all depicted in the scene, their presence underscoring the importance of collaboration and innovation in the cultivation of these captivating flowers. The carnation, scientifically known as Dianthus caryophyllus, has been a beloved flower for centuries, with its sweet fragrance and elegant blooms gracing gardens and bouquets alike. The new varieties showcased in this print represent the ongoing efforts of horticulturists to push the boundaries of what is possible in the world of flora, a testament to the enduring allure and fascination of the natural world.
