1. Title: A Vibrant Display of Broom Species: Genista spp. (Genestra, Genet Petit) from Adam Lonicer's Herbal (1557) This exquisite handcoloured woodblock engraving showcases a captivating collection of Broom species, specifically Genista spp., also known as Genestra and Genet Petit. The illustration is taken from Adam Lonicer's renowned botanical work, Krauterbuch, or Herbal, published in Frankfurt in 1557. This particular print is believed to be from a 17th-century pirate edition or atlas of illustrations, which features captions in multiple languages, including Latin, Greek, French, Italian, German, and English manuscript. The intricately detailed engraving displays various broom species, each with their unique characteristics. Broom plants are known for their shrubby growth and yellow, pea-like flowers. These hardy plants have been used for medicinal purposes since ancient times. The illustration accurately depicts the various stages of the broom plant, from bud to bloom, emphasizing their beauty and versatility. Adam Lonicer was a renowned German botanist and physician who dedicated his life to the study of natural history. His Herbal, Krauterbuch, was one of the most comprehensive works of its time, featuring over 1,200 botanical illustrations. The work was widely distributed and influenced the development of botanical illustrations for centuries to come. This stunning woodblock engraving is a testament to the intricacy and artistry of early botanical illustrations. It serves as a reminder of the rich history of botany and its role in the development of modern medicine. The multilingual captions in this pirate edition further highlight the global reach and impact of Lonicer's work during the Renaissance period.
