EDITORS COMMENTS
This exquisite watercolor print by Francesco Peyrolery showcases a stunning collection of succulent plants, capturing the beauty and diversity of nature in the 18th century. The botanical illustration features nine different species, each meticulously painted with intricate details. Starting from the top left corner, we have the Dark Stonecrop (Sedum atratum), its deep green leaves contrasting against the vibrant yellow flowers of Goldmoss Stonecrop (Sedum acre) below it. On the right side, Mountain Houseleek (Sempervivum montanum) displays its rosette-shaped foliage with delicate pink hues. Moving down to the middle row, Thick-leaf Stonecrop (Sedum dasyphyllum) exhibits its plump leaves that seem to glisten under sunlight. Surrounding it are two variations of Stonecrop (Sedum hirsutum), showcasing their unique leaf structures and pale yellow blossoms. In the bottom row, Annual Stonecrop (Sedum annuum) stands out with its tiny white flowers adorning slender stems. Next to it is Sempervivium hirtum, characterized by its fuzzy leaves arranged in tight clusters. Finally, White stonecrop (Sedum album) completes this botanical masterpiece with its small star-shaped blooms and trailing stems. Peyrolery's skillful use of watercolors brings these succulents to life on paper, highlighting their individual characteristics and textures. This artwork serves as a testament to both his artistic talent and his passion for botany during an era when scientific exploration flourished alongside artistic expression.
