EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning handcoloured copperplate engraving captures the beauty of the Saint James Lily, also known as the Jacobean lily or Aztec lily. The intricate botanical illustration was created by James Sowerby in 1787 for William Curtis' renowned publication, The Botanical Magazine. The image showcases the delicate petals and vibrant colors of this remarkable flower, which is native to Mexico. Its scientific name is Sprekelia formosissima, but it is also referred to as the Jacobean amaryllis or Amaryllis formosissima. The lily's unique shape and striking appearance make it a captivating subject for both botanists and art enthusiasts alike. Sowerby's attention to detail brings out every nuance of this exquisite bloom, from its gracefully curved petals to its prominent stamens. Each stroke of his hand adds depth and dimension to the print, making it a true work of art. This engraving not only serves as a visual delight but also provides valuable knowledge about this particular species. It reflects an era when botanical exploration and horticulture were flourishing in England during the late 18th century. Displayed against a plain background, this print allows viewers to focus solely on the intricate details of the Saint James Lily. It stands as a testament to both scientific accuracy and artistic skill—an enduring masterpiece that continues to inspire admiration centuries later.
