EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning chromolithograph depicts the exquisite Camellia hybrid 'Bertha Giglioli' (Camellia japonica), a beautiful ornamental camellia that was first introduced in the late 19th century. The vibrant image, created by the skilled hands of Belgian artists P. Stroobant and L. Stroobant, was published in Jean Linden's Horticole Illustration in Brussels in 1873. The Camellia japonica, also known as the Japanese camellia, is a popular and widely cultivated flowering plant in the family Theaceae. Native to eastern and southern Asia, this tropical evergreen shrub is renowned for its attractive glossy leaves and elegant, often fragrant, flowers. The Camellia hybrid 'Bertha Giglioli' is a testament to the horticultural artistry of the time, with its unique and captivating blooms. The intricate details of the petals, veins, and leaves are expertly captured in this lithograph, showcasing the artists' mastery of the medium. The rich colors and delicate shading bring the Camellia to life, inviting the viewer to appreciate its beauty and elegance. The Camellia hybrid 'Bertha Giglioli' remains a beloved and cherished plant in gardens around the world, a reminder of the rich botanical heritage of the past and the enduring allure of tropical, exotic plants. This chromolithograph is not only a beautiful work of art, but also a valuable record of the horticultural achievements of the past.
