EDITORS COMMENTS
This exquisite handcoloured lithograph showcases the enchanting Austrian Copper Rose, Rosa foetida, also known as Rosa jaune capucine, Rosa lutea var. bicolor. The botanical illustration was meticulously created by Mlle. F. Legendre and beautifully rendered in lithography by Lecouturier for Pierre Boitard's "Rose-Lovers Complete Manual" published in Paris in 1836. The Austrian Copper Rose is a captivating beauty, with its velvety, copper-tinged petals unfurling from a rich, dark bud. The blooms exhibit a striking bicolor appearance, with the outer petals displaying a vibrant, golden-yellow hue, while the inner petals reveal a deep, rich red hue. The foliage of this rose is a glossy, dark green, providing a striking contrast to the brilliant flowers. Rosa foetida is an old garden rose, with records dating back to the 16th century. It is native to the eastern Mediterranean and Central Asia, and was highly prized for its fragrant, spicy scent. The Austrian Copper Rose was a popular choice for Victorian gardens, and its beauty and allure continue to captivate gardeners and flower enthusiasts today. This beautiful lithograph is a testament to the artistry and dedication of the botanical illustrators and printers of the 19th century, who meticulously documented the natural world for scientific and aesthetic purposes. The intricate details and vibrant colors bring the Austrian Copper Rose to life, allowing us to appreciate its beauty and unique characteristics in a way that words alone cannot convey.
