This exquisite hand-colored copperplate engraving showcases the captivating beauty of a Hybrid Climbing Lophospermum, a mesmerizing fusion of Lophospermum erubescente-scandens (L. erubescens x L. scandens). The engraving, created by S. Nevitt based on a botanical illustration by the talented Mrs. Augusta Withers, is a testament to the intricate detail and artistry of Victorian botanical illustration. The Hybrid Climbing Lophospermum is a rare and alluring plant, born from the natural crossing of Lophospermum erubescens and Lophospermum scandens. The result is a stunning plant that boasts the vibrant red hues of L. erubescens and the climbing habit of L. scandens. The delicate flowers, depicted in full bloom, cascade gracefully down the vine, creating a breathtaking display of color and texture. The engraving, published in Benjamin Maund and the Reverend John Stevens Henslow's esteemed publication, "The Botanist," in London, 1836, showcases the meticulous attention to detail and the dedication of the botanical community during the Victorian era. The illustration not only serves as a record of this beautiful hybrid but also as a work of art, capturing the essence of the plant and the skill of the artist.
