Painting Description
"Drawing 169 Cypripedium spectabile (Lady's Slipper) 1906" is a botanical illustration by Arthur Henry Church, an English artist and botanist renowned for his detailed and scientifically accurate representations of plants. Created in 1906, this artwork depicts the Cypripedium spectabile, also known as the Showy Lady's Slipper or Pink-and-White Lady's Slipper, which is a species of orchid native to North America. Church's illustration is part of a larger body of work that showcases his meticulous approach to capturing the intricate details of plant morphology, which has been of significant value to both the art and scientific communities.
Arthur Henry Church (1865–1937) was a prominent figure in the intersection of art and science during the late 19th and early 20th centuries. His works often combined aesthetic beauty with educational purpose, serving as a bridge between botanical study and the wider public's appreciation of plant life. "Drawing 169 Cypripedium spectabile (Lady's Slipper) 1906" exemplifies Church's skill in using art to communicate scientific information, highlighting features such as the flower's unique pouch-like petal, which is a distinguishing characteristic of the Lady's Slipper orchids.
The illustration is executed with precision and attention to color, form, and texture, characteristics that are hallmarks of Church's artistic style. While the primary purpose of the drawing was to document and study the botanical subject, it also stands as a testament to Church's artistic talent and his contribution to botanical illustration as a form of scientific record and artistic expression. This work remains an important piece within the history of botanical art and continues to be referenced by botanists, horticulturists, and artists alike.
