EDITORS COMMENTS
This exquisite print captures the title page of the iconic "Temple of Flora" from 1812, featuring a charming vignette of cupids pulling a chariot with Flora. Created by Burney and engraved by Tomkins, this stunning image is part of Dr. Robert Thornton's renowned botanical book.
Dr. Thornton, a botanist and publisher, spared no expense in producing this masterpiece, which ultimately led to his bankruptcy. Despite financial setbacks, "The Temple of Flora" is now considered one of the greatest English botanical books ever created.
The intricate illustrations in this print are a mix of aquatint, mezzotint, and stipple engravings that were meticulously finished by hand. The attention to detail in depicting Cupids and Flora on the chariot is truly remarkable.
As you gaze upon this image, you can't help but be transported back to a time when artistry and nature intertwined seamlessly. The delicate garlands and wreaths surrounding Cupids and Flora evoke a sense of beauty and elegance that transcends time.
This print serves as a reminder of the enduring legacy left behind by Dr. Robert Thornton and his dedication to capturing the beauty of flora in all its splendor. It is a testament to the power of art to inspire awe and wonder in those who behold it.
