EDITORS COMMENTS
This exquisite hand-colored copperplate engraving depicts the Smallflower Buttercup, Ranunculus parviflorus, a charming and delicate wildflower native to Europe, North Africa, and western Asia. The intricate detail of the engraving, created by James Sowerby in 1793 for James Smith's English Botany, showcases the Smallflower Buttercup's delicate white petals, which surround a yellow center, and its distinctive green sepals.
