EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning chromolithograph showcases the exquisite beauty of the Lucien Linden variety of Chinese hibiscus (Hibiscus rosa-sinensis var. Lucien Linden). The intricately detailed illustration, created by P. de Pannemaeker for Jean Linden's Illustration Horticole in Brussels in 1882, captures the vibrant colors and unique features of this hybrid variety. The Lucien Linden Chinese hibiscus is a tropical plant, known for its large, velvety, and brightly colored flowers. This particular variety is named after Lucien Linden, a renowned Belgian botanist and horticulturist who made significant contributions to the study and cultivation of exotic plants in Europe during the late 19th century. The Lucien Linden Chinese hibiscus is a hybrid, resulting from the crossbreeding of different Hibiscus species. Its flowers come in various colors, including red, pink, white, and yellow, and have a distinctive bell or funnel shape. The plant's glossy, dark green leaves provide a lush backdrop for the showy blooms. Chromolithographs, such as this one, were a popular method for producing high-quality botanical illustrations during the late 19th and early 20th centuries. The process involved creating separate plates for each color, allowing for a wide range of hues and shading. The result is a richly detailed and vibrant image that captures the essence of the Lucien Linden Chinese hibiscus and its allure. This botanical illustration not only serves as a testament to the artistic and scientific achievements of the past but also highlights the enduring appeal of the Lucien Linden Chinese hibiscus as a symbol of exotic beauty and tropical allure.
