EDITORS COMMENTS
This exquisite hand-colored lithograph showcases the breathtaking beauty of the Bleeding Glory-bower, or Clerodendron thomsoniae, also known as Clerodendron thomsonae. The image is taken from the horticultural masterpiece, "Flowers of the Gardens and Hothouses of Europe," published by Louis van Houtte and Charles Lemaires in Ghent, Belgium between 1862 and 1865. The Bleeding Glory-bower is a native of tropical Africa, characterized by its striking, vibrant, and richly hued flowers. The plant's common name derives from the red sap that oozes from the stems when they are cut or damaged, giving the appearance of bleeding. The flowers themselves are a captivating blend of colors, with a star-shaped corolla that ranges from deep purple to pink and white, and a distinctive yellow throat. This illustration, produced during the Victorian era, is a testament to the meticulous attention to detail and artistic skill of the time. The intricate veining on the leaves, the delicate shading on the petals, and the lifelike representation of the plant's texture all contribute to the overall effect of realism and beauty. The Bleeding Glory-bower was a popular addition to European gardens during the 19th century, and its inclusion in such a prestigious horticultural publication as "Flowers of the Gardens and Hothouses of Europe" speaks to its desirability and allure. This image serves as a reminder of the enduring fascination with exotic plants and the role that horticulture played in the cultural and artistic landscape of the time.
