EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning handcolored illustration depicts the scarlet-flowered Avens, Geum coccineum, a vibrant and captivating plant in the Rose family. The illustration was created by Edinburgh-born botanical artist Edwin Dalton Smith (1786-1852) and expertly engraved by Watts, as part of Charles McIntosh's (1794-1864) esteemed work, "Flora and Pomona." McIntosh, a Scottish gardener to European aristocracy and royalty, and prolific author on gardening, curated this comprehensive publication showcasing a wide array of fruits, flowers, and ornamental plants. Smith's intricate and lifelike botanical illustrations were highly sought after by collectors and scholars during the 19th century. In this illustration, Smith masterfully captures the vivid scarlet hue and delicate details of the Avens' flowers, as well as the distinctive lobed leaves and slender stems. The meticulous handcoloring further enhances the illustration's beauty and realism. The Avens, also known as Geum coccineum, is a perennial herb native to Europe and Asia. Its bright scarlet flowers bloom in early summer, attracting a variety of pollinators and adding a burst of color to gardens and meadows. The plant's fruit, which is not depicted in this illustration, is a capsule containing numerous tiny seeds. This exquisite illustration is a testament to the artistry and dedication of McIntosh, Smith, and Watts, who captured the essence of the Avens and preserved it for future generations to appreciate. Their work continues to inspire and captivate botanists, horticulturists, and nature enthusiasts today.
