EDITORS COMMENTS
This exquisite handcoloured lithograph showcases the enchanting Ram's Head Lady's Slipper Orchid, Cypripedium arietinum. The intricately detailed illustration is taken from the esteemed horticultural publication, "Flowers of the Gardens and Hothouses of Europe," produced by Louis van Houtte and Charles Lemaires in Ghent, Belgium, in 1874. The Ram's Head Lady's Slipper Orchid is a rare and beautiful botanical treasure, renowned for its unique and captivating appearance. The orchid's labellum, or lower lip, is shaped like a ram's head with curved horns, adding to its allure and earning it its distinctive name. The delicate petals are a soft, pale pink hue, with subtle veining and intricate patterns that add to the orchid's intricacy and charm. This botanical illustration provides a stunning and accurate representation of the Ram's Head Lady's Slipper Orchid, offering a glimpse into the beauty and diversity of the natural world during the Victorian era. The meticulous attention to detail and vibrant handcolouring make this a truly magnificent and timeless work of art.
