EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning handcoloured woodblock print captures the intricate details of False flax oil, Camelina sativa, a plant known for its medicinal properties. Created in 1568 by Wolfgang Meyerpick after an illustration by Giorgio Liberale from Pietro Andrea Mattioli's Discorsi di P.A. Matthioli, this botanical artwork is a true masterpiece of the Renaissance era.
The vibrant colors and precise lines showcase the beauty and complexity of nature, highlighting the importance of herbal medicine in ancient times. The careful craftsmanship of this piece reflects the dedication and skill of artists like Meyerpick and Liberale who sought to educate others about the healing powers of plants.
Displayed on a botanical board alongside various other plants, this print serves as both a work of art and a valuable educational tool. It transports viewers back to Venice in the 16th century when knowledge about medicinal botany was highly valued.
As we admire this exquisite woodcut engraving, we are reminded of the rich history behind herbal medicine and the significant role it played in shaping our understanding of health and wellness.
