EDITORS COMMENTS
This exquisite handcolored illustration showcases the enchanting beauty of the White Rose Unique and Simple Capucine, also known as the Austrian Copper Rose. The illustration is taken from Charles Malos' Histoire des Roses, published in Paris in 1818. The artwork was created through a meticulous process of stipple engraving by Teillard, with handcoloring by Pancrace Bessa. The White Rose Unique and Simple Capucine is a rare and captivating rose variety, with its pure white petals unfurling in perfect symmetry around a golden center. The intricate details of the rose's veins and petal edges are expertly captured in this illustration, providing a stunning representation of the flower's delicate beauty. The history of the rose is as rich and complex as the flower itself. This particular variety, with its unique combination of white petals and golden center, was a favorite in European gardens during the 19th century. The illustration serves as a testament to the enduring allure of roses, which have been cultivated for thousands of years for their beauty, fragrance, and symbolic meaning. The botanical illustration style was a popular method of recording and preserving the natural world during the 18th and 19th centuries. The intricate details and precise accuracy of these illustrations were essential for the scientific community, as well as for horticulturists and gardeners seeking to expand their collections. This particular illustration, with its vibrant colors and intricate details, is a prime example of the artistry and skill of the botanical illustrators of the time.
