EDITORS COMMENTS
This exquisite handcoloured woodblock engraving is a botanical illustration of Gooseberries (Ribes uva-crispa) and Alder Buckthorn (Rhamnus frangula), taken from the herbal compendium of Adam Lonicer's Krauterbuch, published in Frankfurt in 1557. The intricate detail of the engraving showcases the distinctive features of both plants. Gooseberries, also known as ribes, are depicted with their small, green, round fruits, clustered together in bunches. The leaves are shown as oval and serrated, with a slight reddish tint. Alder Buckthorn, or faulbaum in German, is illustrated with its slender, spiky branches, bearing small, yellowish-green leaves. The tree is also shown with its characteristic red berries, which ripen from green to red. This botanical illustration is part of a 17th century pirate edition or atlas of the original Krauterbuch, which contains captions in various languages including Latin, Greek, French, Italian, German, and English manuscript. The use of multiple languages reflects the widespread dissemination of botanical knowledge during the Renaissance period. The engraving is a testament to the meticulous work of the botanical illustrators of the time, who captured the essence of each plant with remarkable accuracy. The handcolouring adds an additional layer of beauty and detail, making this a valuable addition to any botanical or historical collection.
