EDITORS COMMENTS
This exquisite hand-colored lithograph showcases the enchanting beauty of the Tree Gloxinia, Smithiantha amabilis, also known by its alternative names Naegelia amabilis, Achimenes amabilis, or Kohleria amabilis. The image is taken from the esteemed horticultural publication "Flowers of the Gardens and Hothouses of Europe," produced by the renowned Belgian botanists Louis van Houtte and Charles Lemaires in 1857. The Tree Gloxinia is a captivating epiphyte, native to the tropical regions of Central and South America. Its elegant, slender stems can reach up to 30 centimeters in height, adorned with heart-shaped, velvety leaves that radiate a glossy sheen. The plant's most striking feature, however, is its stunning, tubular flowers. These blossoms come in various shades of pink, red, and white, with intricate veining and a distinctive, sweet fragrance. The Tree Gloxinia was a popular ornamental plant during the Victorian era, and its inclusion in esteemed botanical publications like "Flowers of the Gardens and Hothouses of Europe" further solidified its status as a coveted addition to European greenhouses and gardens. The meticulous attention to detail in this hand-colored lithograph serves as a testament to the botanical illustrators' dedication to accurately capturing the essence and allure of this remarkable plant. The delicate interplay of color, form, and texture in the Tree Gloxinia's flowers is on full display in this stunning botanical illustration. The intricate veining and subtle shading bring the petals to life, while the vibrant hues evoke a sense of wonder and enchantment. This image not only serves as a beautiful decorative piece but also as a valuable record of the botanical discoveries and advancements of the 19th century.
