EDITORS COMMENTS
This exquisite handcoloured copperplate engraving showcases the captivating beauty of the Camellia japonica anemoniflora cultivar, a beloved camellia variety hailing from Japan and China. The illustration, created by the skilled hand of George Cooke, was produced for Conrad Loddiges' Botanical Cabinet in Hackney, London, in the year 1821. The Camellia japonica anemoniflora cultivar is renowned for its striking, anemone-like flowers, which bloom in various shades of pink and white. The delicate petals, intricately detailed in this engraving, unfurl to reveal a central boss of golden stamens. The glossy, evergreen foliage forms an elegant backdrop to the showy flowers, adding to the plant's allure. Camellias have held a special place in horticulture and culture for centuries, particularly in Japan and China, where they are considered symbols of prosperity, good fortune, and love. The Camellia japonica anemoniflora cultivar, with its enchanting blooms, has long been a favourite among collectors and botanical enthusiasts. This beautiful illustration, a testament to the artistry and dedication of George Cooke and Conrad Loddiges, offers a glimpse into the past, showcasing the timeless charm and elegance of the Camellia japonica anemoniflora cultivar. The intricate details and vibrant colours bring the flower to life, allowing us to appreciate its beauty and allure even from a distance of nearly two centuries.
