EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning chromolithograph depicts the Rhynchostele madrensis, also known as Odontoglossum madrense, an exquisite orchid species native to the tropical forests of South America. The Rhynchostele madrensis is a captivating plant, renowned for its vibrant foliage and enchanting flowers. The intricate details of this orchid are beautifully captured in this chromolithograph by P. Stroobant, created for Jean Linden's Horticole Illustration in Brussels in 1883. Chromolithography is a printing technique that uses multiple lithographic stones, each coated with a different color, to produce a richly colored and detailed image. This method allowed for the creation of highly accurate and vivid botanical illustrations, making it an ideal choice for showcasing the Rhynchostele madrensis's intricate features. The Rhynchostele madrensis is a member of the Odontoglossum genus, which is known for its diverse range of orchid species. This particular species is native to the Madre de Dios region of Peru and is characterized by its large, glossy green leaves and clusters of small, fragrant flowers. The flowers are typically a bright, fiery red color with white lips, adding to the plant's allure. This botanical illustration is not only a testament to the beauty and intricacy of the Rhynchostele madrensis but also serves as an important historical record of this exotic and fascinating orchid species. The image provides a glimpse into the world of tropical plants and the natural wonders that can be found in the far reaches of the earth.
