EDITORS COMMENTS
This print, titled "Pancratium Amboinense, Plate 20 from A Selection of Hexandrian Plants" takes us on a journey back to the early 19th century. Created by Mrs. Edward Bury and published by R. Havell in London between 1831 and 1834, this hand-colored engraving showcases the exquisite beauty of nature. The focal point of the image is the Pancratium Amboinense, a delicate white flower with ribbed petals that gracefully unfurl towards the viewer. Its ovate leaves provide a lush backdrop for this stunning botanical specimen. The stem rises proudly from its surroundings, supporting not only the flower but also our admiration for its elegance. The artist's attention to detail is evident in every aspect of this composition – from the intricate stigma at the center of each blossom to the heart-shaped spathe that encloses them. Each element has been meticulously rendered, capturing both scientific accuracy and artistic finesse. As we gaze upon this enchanting print, we are transported into a world where botany meets artistry. Priscilla Susan Bury's skillful interpretation brings forth an appreciation for nature's wonders while preserving their essence through her masterful strokes. Now part of a private collection known as The Stapleton Collection, this remarkable piece continues to inspire awe and wonderment centuries after its creation. It serves as a timeless reminder that even in our modern age, there is still much beauty to be found in observing and celebrating
