About the Item
Lithograph of Tricyrtis Pilosa by Louis van Houtte from Flore des Serres
This detailed lithograph, measuring approximately 24 x 16 cm (9.5 x 6.5 inches), illustrates the plant Tricyrtis Pilosa, commonly known as the Hairy Toad Lily. This species is part of the lily family and is native to regions of Asia, particularly the mountainous areas where it thrives. The plant is recognized for its beautiful, orchid-like flowers, which feature a unique pattern of spots and stripes, as well as its hairy stems and leaves, which are accurately captured in this illustration.
The artwork is from "Flore des Serres et des Jardins de l'Europe", an esteemed botanical publication by Louis van Houtte, a notable Belgian horticulturist of the 19th century.
Van Houtte's work is famous for its comprehensive coverage of plant species from around the world, accompanied by high-quality illustrations that serve both scientific and aesthetic purposes.
The lithograph is colored by hand, a technique that was highly regarded for its ability to bring out the natural hues and details of plants, enhancing the scientific accuracy and visual appeal of the images.
The condition of this piece is well-maintained, showing the fine details of the plant structure, such as the flower's intricate pattern and the texture of the leaves, with minimal signs of aging like slight discoloration or foxing typical of works from this era. Two small holes in the outer right margin of the print.
This lithograph is not only a botanical record but also a piece of art, reflecting the 19th-century enthusiasm for botany and the intricate beauty of plant life.
