It was in reference to the Anemone coronaria that they invented the fable of the Anemone originating in the grief of Venus for the love of Adonis. The species inhabit the woods, thickets and mountains of the temperate regions. A. vitifolia was discovered by Dr. Hamilton Buchanan at Suemba in Upper Nepal, and also in the Himalayas. This showy species was introduced to England in 1829 by seeds brought from India by the Countess Amherst and cultivated in her ladyship’s choice collection at Montreal, Kent.Illustration by Miss Maund, showing the flower in bloom and in bud, along with an uncoloured engraving of the entire shrub.BildnummerAKG1804177KollektionFlorilegiusBildnachweisakg-images / FlorilegiusThemenANEMONEAUSSETZUNGBLUMEFLORILEGIUSFRAUGARTENARBEITHAUSGARTENILLUSTRATIONILLUSTRATORKÜNSTLERWEISS (FARBE)PersonenBENJAMINTechnikGRAVURGröße3204px × 4205px (38 MB) 27.1 cm × 35.6 cm @ 300 dpiZur Lightbox 'My First Lightbox' hinzufügen Zum Warenkorb hinzufügenDownload
