About the Item
Botanical Illustration of Blanket Flower: Gaillardia Grandiflora
This vibrant lithograph features the Gaillardia grandiflora, commonly known as the Blanket Flower. This striking plant is celebrated for its large, daisy-like flowers with bold colors ranging from red and orange to yellow, making it a popular choice in gardens for its bright and cheerful appearance. The illustration captures the vivid coloration and form of the flower, with its prominent central disk and ray florets surrounded by lush green foliage.
This image is part of the 19th-century botanical series "Flore des Serres et des Jardins de l'Europe," created by the Belgian horticulturist Louis van Houtte. Known for his extensive work in horticulture, van Houtte's illustrations provided detailed and visually appealing representations of various plant species, aiming to document the beauty and diversity of the botanical world.
Hand-colored lithography, the method used here, was a favored technique for its ability to accurately depict the vivid hues and intricate details of plants.
The print is in good condition, with the colors well-preserved, though it may show minor signs of aging such as light foxing, which is typical for antique botanical illustrations. This piece exemplifies the 19th-century fascination with plant aesthetics and the meticulous documentation of botanical varieties.
