EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning hand-colored copperplate engraving showcases two beloved plants of the botanical world: St. John's Wort (Hypericum perforatum) and the Blue Bottle or Cornflower (Centaurea cyanus). The illustration, created by Sydenham Edwards and engraved by F. Sansom, was published as part of William Curtis' Lectures on Botany, delivered at the Botanic Garden in Lambeth, England, in 1805. St. John's Wort, also known as Polyadelphia, is depicted in its full glory, with its distinctive yellow flowers and perforated leaves. The plant has a rich history in traditional medicine, particularly for treating nervous disorders and depression. Its vibrant yellow blooms have long been associated with the summer solstice and St. John the Baptist, from which it derives its name. Surrounding the St. John's Wort are several Blue Bottle or Cornflowers. These beautiful flowers, also known as Syngenesia, are characterized by their distinctive blue hue and papery, ribbed petals that resemble the shape of a blue bottle. The Blue Bottle Cornflower is native to Europe and has been cultivated for its attractive blooms and edible seeds. The intricate details of the illustration are a testament to the skill and artistry of Sydenham Edwards and F. Sansom. The hand-coloring adds an additional layer of depth and beauty to the already stunning botanical depiction. This engraving is a must-have for any botanical art enthusiast, providing a glimpse into the rich history of botanical illustration and the natural wonders of the plant kingdom.
