EDITORS COMMENTS
This exquisite handcoloured copperplate engraving depicts the enchanting Alpenrose, or Rhododendron ferrugineum, a native flower of the European Alps. The intricate details of the delicate petals and vibrant red stamen are beautifully rendered in this artwork, which was created by George Cooke based on an original observation by George Loddiges for Conrad Loddiges Botanical Cabinet in Hackney, London, in 1817. The Alpenrose, also known as the snow rose, is a hardy rhododendron that blooms in the early summer, often amidst the snow and ice of the Alpine regions. Its bright red, funnel-shaped flowers contrast starkly against the white snow, making it a symbol of resilience and beauty in the face of adversity. This illustration is a testament to the artistry and dedication of the botanical community during the 19th century, who meticulously documented and preserved the natural world for future generations. The use of handcolouring added an extra layer of detail and realism to the engraving, making it a valuable addition to any botanical collection. The Alpenrose remains a popular and cherished flower among gardeners and nature enthusiasts, and this beautiful artwork serves as a reminder of its unique beauty and the importance of preserving the natural world for future generations to enjoy.
