EDITORS COMMENTS
This exquisite handcolored illustration showcases the enchanting beauty of the Pale Blue and Lilac Flowered Chinese Glycine (Glycine sinensis), as depicted in Charles McIntosh's Flora and Pomona published in 1829. The Scottish gardener and author, McIntosh, was renowned for his work with European aristocracy and royalty, and his extensive knowledge of horticulture led him to pen numerous books on gardening. The botanical illustration was brought to life through the skilled hands of Edwin Dalton Smith, who expertly captured the delicate details of the flower and its intricate veining. Smith's work was highly sought after by botanical collectors and scholars, and his illustrations graced many esteemed publications of the time. The Pale Blue and Lilac Flowered Chinese Glycine is a rare and captivating variety of the bean family, with its delicate, pale blue and lilac blossoms adorning the plant in the early summer months. The illustration also highlights the fruit, which appears in a rich green hue, adding to the overall allure of this botanical treasure. The engraving, executed by F.W. Smith, further enhances the intricacy and detail of the illustration, making it a true masterpiece of the 19th century botanical world. This historical artifact offers a glimpse into the past, showcasing the beauty and wonder of the natural world as it was discovered and documented during a time when botanical exploration and discovery were at their height.
