EDITORS COMMENTS
This exquisite handcolored illustration showcases the lush, ripe red fruit and leaves of the Downton Strawberry (Fragaria ananassa), a variety of the common strawberry. The illustration, created in the 19th century, is a testament to the beauty and intricacy of botanical art during this period. The illustration was produced by Edwin Dalton Smith, a skilled botanical artist who drew for notable figures such as Robert Sweet and Benjamin Maund. The engraving was expertly executed by F.W. Smith. The Downton Strawberry, also known as the Charlotte Strawberry, is a popular cultivar that was first introduced in the early 1800s. Its large, juicy, and bright red fruit has made it a favorite among gardeners and consumers for over two centuries. The leaves, depicted in the illustration, are green and have a serrated edge, providing a striking contrast to the ripe, red fruit. The illustration is taken from Charles McIntosh's Flora and Pomona, a comprehensive work on the cultivation and identification of fruits, vegetables, and ornamental plants. McIntosh, a Scottish gardener to European aristocracy and royalty, was a prolific author and horticulturist who made significant contributions to the field of gardening. His works were widely regarded for their accuracy and attention to detail, making them valuable resources for botanists, gardeners, and collectors alike. This illustration is a beautiful reminder of the rich history of botanical art and the importance of preserving and celebrating the natural world. The intricate details of the Downton Strawberry's fruit and leaves are a testament to the skill and dedication of the artists and engravers of the past, and serve as a source of inspiration for contemporary botanical artists and collectors.
