EDITORS COMMENTS
This exquisite handfinished chromolithograph by Noel Humphreys, based on an illustration by Jane Loudon from her renowned horticultural publication, "Mrs. Jane Loudon's Ladies Flower Garden or Ornamental Greenhouse Plants," showcases an enchanting array of Camellia and tea species. The illustration, published in London in 1849 by William S. Orr, displays the Reticulated-leaved Camellia (Camellia reticulata), Oil-bearing Camellia (Camellia oleifera), Apple-blossom-flowering Camellia (Camellia maliflora), and Green Tea (Camellia sinensis, also known as Thea viridis). The Reticulated-leaved Camellia is depicted with its striking, intricately veined leaves, while the Oil-bearing Camellia is shown with its glossy, evergreen foliage and small white flowers. The Apple-blossom-flowering Camellia boasts delicate pink blooms, reminiscent of apple blossoms, adding a delightful touch to the arrangement. The Green Tea plant is illustrated with its tender, dark green leaves, which would soon be harvested to produce the world's most popular beverage. This image serves as a testament to the beauty and diversity of these beloved plants. The intricate details and vibrant colors of the chromolithograph bring the various Camellia and tea species to life, making it a must-have for any botanical art collection. The meticulous handfinishing by Noel Humphreys further enhances the artwork's allure, ensuring that this print remains a cherished piece for generations to come.
