EDITORS COMMENTS
This exquisite handcoloured copperplate engraving showcases the captivating beauty of Chorillos Alstroemeria, or Alstroemeria chorillensis, a native Peruvian lily. The illustration, created by the skilled hand of G. Barclay, was based on a drawing by Miss Sarah Drake and published in John Lindley and Robert Sweet's Ornamental Flower Garden and Shrubbery in 1854. The Chorillos Alstroemeria is a graceful perennial herb, boasting elegant spikes of vibrant, bi-colored flowers. The blooms display a striking contrast between their rich purple-red petals and their pure white throats, surrounded by a ring of bright yellow anthers. The plant's slender stems emerge from a rosette of narrow, linear leaves, adding to its elegant and refined appearance. Chorillos Alstroemeria is native to the highlands of Peru and is often found in rocky, sunny areas. This botanical illustration offers a glimpse into the rich and diverse flora of the Andes Mountains during the Victorian era. It is a testament to the meticulous attention to detail and the artistic skill of the time, making it an invaluable addition to any botanical or historical collection. The intricate process of copperplate engraving involved creating a design on a copper plate, which was then etched with acid to create the lines and details. The plate was then hand-painted with watercolors, resulting in a highly detailed and visually stunning image. This particular illustration, with its delicate shading and vibrant colors, captures the essence of the Chorillos Alstroemeria and serves as a reminder of the beauty and wonder found in the natural world.
