EDITORS COMMENTS
This exquisite handcolored illustration showcases the vibrant Scarlet Flowered Salmon Correa, Corroea pulchella, a captivating botanical beauty from the 19th century. The illustration, created by the skilled hand of botanical artist Edwin Dalton Smith, was meticulously engraved by Watts for the renowned Scottish gardener and author, Charles McIntosh. McIntosh, who lived from 1794 to 1864, was a prominent figure in European aristocracy and royalty circles, known for his extensive knowledge and passion for horticulture. He authored numerous books on gardening, including the publication "Flora and Pomona," in which this illustration originally appeared. The Scarlet Flowered Salmon Correa is a native of South America, specifically Peru and Chile. This fascinating plant boasts striking scarlet-colored flowers, which bloom in clusters and attract a variety of pollinators. The plant's leaves are a glossy, deep green, and its fruit is a bright red capsule. The intricate details of the plant's anatomy are expertly captured in this illustration, providing a window into the natural world of the past. The handcolored technique used in this illustration adds an extra layer of beauty and depth to the already stunning Correa pulchella. The delicate shades of red and green bring the plant to life, making it a true work of art. This illustration is a testament to the dedication and expertise of both Edwin Dalton Smith and Charles McIntosh, who worked tirelessly to document and preserve the natural world for future generations.
