"New Illustration of the Sexual System of...Linnaeus, Comprehending...the Temple of Flora..." is an ambitious and lavishly illustrated botanical work by Dr. Robert John Thornton, first published in the early 19th century. This monumental publication is celebrated for its exquisite plates and its comprehensive exploration of the Linnaean system of plant classification. Thornton, an English physician and botanical writer, sought to create a work that not only detailed the scientific aspects of botany but also captured the aesthetic beauty of plants.

The "Temple of Flora" is the most renowned section of this work, featuring a series of stunning botanical illustrations that are considered some of the finest examples of botanical art. These illustrations were created by some of the leading artists of the time, including Philip Reinagle, Peter Henderson, and Abraham Pether, among others. Each plate is accompanied by poetic and descriptive text that enhances the viewer's appreciation of the depicted plants.

Thornton's work was conceived during a period of great interest in botany and natural history, reflecting the Enlightenment's emphasis on scientific inquiry and the Romantic era's fascination with nature. Despite its artistic and scientific merits, the publication was a financial failure for Thornton, who invested a significant portion of his fortune into its production. The high cost of the elaborate illustrations and the limited market for such a luxurious book contributed to its commercial downfall.

Today, "New Illustration of the Sexual System of...Linnaeus, Comprehending...the Temple of Flora..." is highly valued by collectors and scholars for its historical significance and its contribution to botanical art and literature. The work remains a testament to Thornton's dedication to both science and art, and it continues to be admired for its beauty and scholarly importance.
