EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning hand-colored copperplate engraving showcases the exquisite beauty of the Tree Dahlia, Dahlia excelsa. The botanical illustration was created by the skilled hand of Miss Sara Maund, with the intricate details carefully translated onto copperplate by S. Nevitt. The image is taken from Benjamin Maund and the Reverend John Stevens Henslow's influential work, "The Botanist," published in London in 1836. The Tree Dahlia, also known as the Orchid Dahlia, is a rare and captivating plant native to Central America. Its large, velvety leaves form a towering stem that can reach up to 12 feet in height. Atop this sturdy structure, the plant produces clusters of vibrant, orchid-like flowers in shades of pink, red, and white. The delicate petals and sepals are intricately veined, adding to the flower's allure. This Victorian-era botanical illustration is a testament to the meticulous attention to detail and dedication to scientific accuracy that characterized the study of botany during this time. The intricate engraving process, which involved etching the design onto a copper plate and then printing it onto paper, ensured that each detail was faithfully reproduced. As a collector's item or an addition to a botanical study, this Tree Dahlia print is a captivating reminder of the beauty and diversity of the natural world. Its intricate details and historical significance make it a valuable addition to any collection or display, offering a glimpse into the rich history of botanical illustration.
