EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning handcoloured woodblock engraving from Adam Lonicer's Krauterbuch showcases the beauty and intricacy of Species of yellow bugloss, Anchusa officinalis, and small bugloss. Dating back to 1557, this botanical illustration is a true masterpiece of art and science.
The detailed depiction of these plants in their natural form is not only visually captivating but also serves as a valuable resource for medical botany and herbal medicine. The captions in Latin, Greek, French, Italian, German, and English manuscript add an educational element to this historical piece.
As we admire this 16th-century artwork, we are transported back in time to a period when botanical illustrations played a crucial role in understanding the natural world. The delicate handcolouring brings out the vibrancy of the yellow bugloss and small bugloss plants, making them appear almost lifelike on paper.
This print is not just a work of art; it is a testament to human curiosity and exploration. It reminds us of the importance of preserving our natural heritage and continuing to study the wonders of plant life for generations to come.
