Sweet Pl. 129 From The British Flower Garden, (Series the Second,) Containing Coloured Figures & Descriptions of the Most Ornamental & Curious Hardy Flowering Plants;... By Robert Sweet, F.L.S., The Drawings by E.D. Smith, F.L.S.
London: James Ridgway, 169 Piccadilly, 1829-37. Octavo. Steel engraving. Original full hand color.
From one of many publications by the prolific naturalist author, Robert Sweet, this charming and richly colored engraving truly captures the essence of a flower in full bloom. Each blossom in this series presents a striking and detailed example for both the serious horticulturist and the casual amateur. Not only are the eye-catching blossoms accurately depicted, but also the important bulb or root system, foliage, and the “interior segments.”
