EDITORS COMMENTS
This exquisite hand-coloured copperplate engraving, created by S. Watts after an illustration by Miss Sarah Drake, showcases the charming beauty of Pericallis tussilaginis, also known as Coltsfoot-leaved groundsel or Senecio tussilaginis. The image was published in Sydenham Edwards' Botanical Register in Ridgeway, London, in 1832. Pericallis tussilaginis is a native plant of Europe, North Africa, and western Asia, and is characterized by its distinctive coltsfoot-shaped leaves, which resemble the hooves of a colt. The plant blooms with bright yellow flowers, which appear in clusters, adding a vibrant pop of color to gardens and meadows. The intricate details of the engraving capture the delicate texture and form of the plant's leaves and flowers, as well as the subtle variations in color. The use of hand-coloring further enhances the image, bringing the botanical illustration to life with rich hues and depth. Miss Sarah Drake's illustration was meticulously translated into a copperplate engraving by S. Watts, a skilled engraver of the time. The resulting image is a testament to the artistry and dedication of both the illustrator and engraver, as well as the advances in botanical illustration during the 19th century. This image not only serves as a beautiful addition to any botanical collection, but also provides a window into the past, offering a glimpse into the world of botanical exploration and discovery during the Victorian era.
