EDITORS COMMENTS
This illustration showcases the intriguing process of proliferating carnations, as depicted in Dr. John Hill's "Verhandeling over de verdubbeling van bloemen" or "Treatise on the Propagation of Flowers," published around 1810. The naturally colored image, believed to be created using gouache, offers a detailed and visually stunning representation of this botanical phenomenon. Dr. Hill, an English physician and botanist, was a prominent figure in the scientific community of his time. In this work, he explores the origins and cultivation of proliferating or self-propagating flowers. The proliferating carnation, in particular, is the focus of this illustration. The image displays a carnation flower in various stages of growth, each with a unique characteristic. At the center is a mature carnation bloom, its petals unfurled and displaying their vibrant colors. Surrounding it are buds and young shoots, each with a distinct shape and size. The most intriguing part of the illustration, however, is the tiny carnation sprouts emerging from the base of the mature flower and the shoots. These miniature carnations are in the process of developing their own roots and will soon grow into independent plants. This illustration not only showcases the beauty and complexity of nature but also highlights the fascination and curiosity that drove scientists like Dr. Hill to explore the intricacies of botany during the early 19th century. The proliferating carnation serves as a testament to the power of nature to create new life from an existing one, making it a truly captivating subject for scientific study and artistic expression.
