''The Botanical Magazine; or Flower-Garden Displayed'', commonly referred to as ''Botanical Magazine'', is a significant horticultural publication that was first issued in 1787 by William Curtis, an English botanist and entomologist. The magazine is renowned for its detailed illustrations and comprehensive descriptions of plants, making it an invaluable resource for botanists, gardeners, and plant enthusiasts. It is one of the longest-running botanical periodicals, with continuous publication into the 21st century under the title ''Curtis's Botanical Magazine''.

William Curtis began the magazine after his success with ''Flora Londinensis'', aiming to reach a wider audience through a more affordable and regular publication. The magazine's initial purpose was to familiarize its readers with plants from all over the world, including new species being introduced to European gardens from expeditions to exotic locations. Each issue contained high-quality, hand-colored plates of plants, accompanied by a text that provided scientific descriptions, cultivation advice, and other relevant information.

The illustrations have been a defining feature of the magazine, contributing to its reputation and success. The early volumes included work by renowned botanical illustrators such as Sydenham Edwards and James Sowerby, setting a standard of excellence that would be maintained by subsequent artists. The detailed engravings not only served as a visual record of the plants but also as a means of scientific communication, depicting newly discovered species with precision.

''Botanical Magazine'' has undergone several changes in title and format throughout its history, reflecting its adaptation to the evolving field of botany and the interests of its readership. Despite these changes, it has remained a respected publication in the botanical community, documenting the discovery and cultivation of plants and influencing the development of botanical art and science.

The legacy of William Curtis and his ''Botanical Magazine'' is evident in the continued interest in botanical illustration and the study of plants. The magazine's archives provide a historical record of botanical discovery and horticultural trends over the centuries, making it a subject of enduring academic and cultural significance.
