Loudon The Ladies' Flower Garden of Ornamental Bulbous Plants 1841 We are pleased to offer a selection of EXTREMELY RARES lavish botanical prints after illustrations by Jane Loudon, showing various species of bulbous plants arranged in decorative bouquets, which was Loudon innovation. Jane Webb Loudon was the wife of John Claudius Loudon, an important nineteenth-century landscape gardener and horticultural writer. She worked alongside her husband on his literary projects and became a horticultural authority in her own right. Widowed early, she supported herself with popular horticultural writing and illustration, producing a series of volumes on annuals, perennials, greenhouse plants, bulbs, wildflowers and so forth. Mrs. Loudon's immensely popular prints were largely responsible for making gardening a respectable pursuit for the Victorian gentlewoman. Until Loudon, botanicals featured either a single specimen or flowers that belonged to a specific category of scientific classification, Loudon took the approach of a gardener gathering the current blooms and arranging them artistically. "Loudon developed a simple formula for these works, combining a brief text with charming illustrations, an arrangement that appealed to her audience. For each plant a brief botanical description was provided, including its common name in English, its order and genus, some historical notes, and instructions regarding its cultivation (An Oak Spring Flora p.326)". THIS PLATES ARE HAND COLORED, WITH BRIGHT VIVID COLOR VERY BEAUTIFUL AND WONDERFULLY DATAILED SO CHARACTERIST OF THE FIRST EDITION.
