EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning chromolithograph depicts a unique Cordyline australis hybrid, Dracaena rigoutsi, produced by the renowned Belgian horticulturist Albert Rigouts in the late 19th century. The Cordyline australis, also known as the New Zealand cabbage tree or Ti Kouka, is a native plant of New Zealand and is known for its towering, tree-like structure and vibrant, strap-shaped leaves. Albert Rigouts, a prominent figure in Belgian horticulture, is celebrated for his exceptional skill in hybridizing various plant species, including this Cordyline australis hybrid. The hybrid, Dracaena rigoutsi, showcases a captivating blend of the Cordyline's natural beauty and Rigouts' innovative horticultural techniques. The illustration of this exotic plant was drawn and chromolithographed by the talented Belgian botanical artist Pieter de Pannemaeker, under the direction of Jean Linden, the editor of the esteemed horticultural publication "L'Illustration Horticole" in Brussels. The chromolithograph process, a popular method for producing high-quality botanical illustrations during this era, allowed for intricate details and vivid colors to be captured, making this print a true masterpiece. The foliage of the Dracaena rigoutsi is a stunning display of rich, deep greens and red hues, adding a touch of the exotic to any setting. This beautiful plant, with its unique characteristics and captivating appearance, continues to be a source of inspiration for horticulturists and plant enthusiasts around the world.
