The White Lily (Lilium Candidum) is a striking representation of this iconic flower, showcasing its purity and timeless elegance. Pierre-Joseph Redouté, the renowned 18th-century botanical illustrator, demonstrates his talent for capturing the splendor and delicacy of flowers through his engravings.
In the publication dated 1827 from which the plate is taken, the detail of this illustration is given as follows:
This plant is the most widespread and one of the most beautiful species of the genus Lily (Lilium), which gave its name to the Liliaceae. It is native to the Levant, but has always been cultivated in gardens because of the beauty of its flowers, an emblem of virginal purity. There are several varieties, the main ones being: the double-flowered Lily; the bloody Lily, which has petals marked with purple lines or spots; and the variegated-leaved Lily.
