EDITORS COMMENTS
This exquisite botanical print showcases the stunning beauty and diversity of the carnation, or Dianthus caryophyllus, as it was known in the 1880s. The image, lithographed by the renowned Belgian artist P. de Pannemaeker of Ghent, was published in Jean Linden's Illustration Horticole, a leading horticultural journal of the time. The carnation, a favorite flower for gardeners and florists alike, is celebrated for its vibrant colors and sweet fragrance. In this print, we see a delightful arrangement of various carnations and pinks, each with its unique hue and form. From deep reds and purples to soft pinks and whites, these flowers captivate the eye and evoke a sense of romance and elegance. The carnation, which derives its name from the Latin word for 'flesh' and 'flower,' has a rich history that dates back to ancient Greece and Rome. It was believed to symbolize love, fascination, and pride, making it a popular choice for romantic gestures and celebrations. This botanical print not only serves as a beautiful decorative piece but also offers a glimpse into the past, showcasing the meticulous attention to detail and artistic skill of the lithographer and the horticultural knowledge of the time. The intricate illustration invites us to appreciate the natural world and the beauty that can be found in even the smallest of details.
