EDITORS COMMENTS
Thunbergia grandiflora, also known as the Bengal clockvine, is a stunning and exotic tropical plant that captivates with its vibrant, trumpet-shaped flowers. This beautiful chromolithograph by J.L. Goffart, based on an original illustration in Jean Linden's "Illustration Horticole" published in Brussels in 1895, showcases the plant in all its glory. The Bengal clockvine is native to India and Southeast Asia, and its name derives from its ability to produce flowers in a seemingly continuous clockwise sequence around its stem. The flowers come in various colors, including yellow, orange, and red, and they bloom profusely throughout the growing season. The intricate detail in this lithograph captures the delicate texture of the Bengal clockvine's foliage, as well as the delicate veining and patterns on its flowers. The use of chromolithography, a printing technique that involves the use of multiple lithographic stones, allows for a rich and vibrant color palette that brings the plant to life. The Bengal clockvine is a popular choice for gardeners and plant enthusiasts who seek to add a touch of the exotic to their collections. Its lush foliage and constant blooming make it a beautiful addition to any garden or indoor space. This chromolithograph serves as a testament to the enduring allure of this fascinating plant and the art of botanical illustration.
