EDITORS COMMENTS
This exquisite handfinished chromolithograph depicts a stunning array of Peony, or Paeonia, species, capturing their ethereal beauty and grace. The illustration is derived from an original work by Jane Loudon, featured in her renowned publication, "Mrs. Jane Loudon's Ladies Flower Garden of Ornamental Perennials," published in London in 1849 by William S. Orr. The intricate design showcases several distinct Peony varieties, including Paeonia edulis, Paeonia albiflora, fine-leaved peony (Paeonia tenuifolia), Paeonia hybrida, and Russ crimson peony (Paeonia russi). Each bloom is rendered with meticulous attention to detail, revealing their unique characteristics and allure. Paeonia edulis, also known as the Tree Peony, is admired for its large, fragrant blossoms and woody stem. Paeonia albiflora, or the White Peony, is celebrated for its pure white flowers and delicate fragrance. The fine-leaved peony (Paeonia tenuifolia) boasts slender foliage and small, delicate blooms, while Paeonia hybrida encompasses a wide range of hybrid varieties with various colors and shapes. Lastly, the Russ crimson peony (Paeonia russi) is renowned for its deep red, velvety petals and strong fragrance. This lithograph by Henry Noel Humphreys serves as a testament to the timeless allure and elegance of these beloved flowers. The handfinished technique adds an additional layer of artistry and depth, making it a cherished addition to any botanical collection or garden-inspired decor.
