EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning chromolithograph depicts the elegant beauty of the Calla lily, Zantedeschia aethiopica, also known as the Trumpet lily, Arum lily, or Calla arum. The illustration, created by Desire Bois in 1896 for Edward Step's Favourite Flowers of Garden and Greenhouse, showcases the lily's distinctive white, funnel-shaped blooms with bright green, ribbed leaves. The lily is native to southern Africa and was a popular addition to Victorian gardens and greenhouses. The illustration also features several other exotic flowers, including the Anthurium scherzerianum, with its vibrant red spathe and spadix, and the Flamingo Lily, Victoria amazonica, with its large, pink, water-lily-like blooms. The intricate details of each flower are expertly rendered, capturing their unique textures and forms. The Victorian era was a time of great interest in botanical illustration and horticulture, as people sought to expand their knowledge of the natural world and bring exotic plants into their homes. This chromolithograph is a testament to the beauty and allure of these flowers, which continue to captivate gardeners and plant enthusiasts today. Desire Bois was a renowned botanical illustrator of the late 19th century, known for her meticulous attention to detail and her ability to capture the essence of each subject. Her work was widely published in horticultural journals and gardening books, making her a pioneer in the field of botanical illustration.
