About the Item

Van Houtte's Tigridia Botanical Illustration by Louis van Houtte, 19th Century This illustration features *Tigridia van Houttei*, commonly known as Van Houtte's Tigridia, a plant recognized for its unique, eye-catching flowers. Measuring approximately 24 x 16 cm (9.5 x 6.5 inches), this print is part of the esteemed botanical series "Flore des Serres et des Jardins de l'Europe," curated by Louis van Houtte, a renowned 19th-century Belgian horticulturist. Van Houtte's work is distinguished by its meticulous botanical illustrations, capturing a wide range of plant species with precision and artistry. The *Tigridia van Houttei* depicted here is native to Mexico, as indicated by the label "Mexique." The plant is characterized by its long, ribbed leaves and striking flowers, which display a mix of dark maroon, purple, and yellow. These flowers have a distinct appearance, resembling the markings of a tiger, which is fitting given the genus name *Tigridia*, derived from the Latin word for tiger. The term "châssis froid" suggests that this plant is suited for cultivation in cold frames, a type of protective structure that helps regulate temperature and provide a suitable growing environment. The lithograph, produced using the lithography technique with original hand coloring, captures the intricate details and vibrant colors of the plant, showcasing the artistic and scientific excellence of Louis van Houtte's publications. The print is well-preserved, with the colors and details remaining clear and vibrant, reflecting the high quality of the artwork and the care taken in its preservation.
