EDITORS COMMENTS
This exquisite hand-colored copperplate engraving showcases the stunning beauty of the Madagascar Periwinkle, Catharanthus roseus, also known as Vinca rosea. The illustration was created by Sydenham Edwards and engraved by Sansom for the Botanical Magazine, published by William Curtis in London in 1793. Madagascar Periwinkle is a native of Madagascar and is renowned for its vibrant, five-petaled flowers, which come in shades of pink, white, and purple. The plant is a popular ornamental and is often grown in gardens for its attractive blooms. The intricate details of the engraving reveal the delicate veining on the leaves and the intricacies of the flower's structure. The hand-coloring adds an extra layer of depth and richness to the image, bringing out the true beauty of the plant. The Madagascar Periwinkle is not only admired for its aesthetic qualities but also for its medicinal properties. The alkaloids present in the plant have been used to treat various medical conditions, including heart disease and certain types of cancer. This engraving is a testament to the artistry and scientific precision of the time, capturing the essence of the Madagascar Periwinkle in a way that continues to captivate viewers over two centuries later.
