EDITORS COMMENTS
1. Title: "Silver Poplar (Populus alba) - A Timeless Botanical Marvel" This handcoloured copperplate engraving showcases the Silver Poplar tree, scientifically known as Populus alba. Dating back to 1876, this image is taken from Dr. Willibald Artus' Hand-Atlas sammtlicher mediinisch-pharmaceutischer Gewachse, a comprehensive handbook of medical-pharmaceutical plants published in Jena. The Silver Poplar, also referred to as the Silver Appel Poplar, is a striking and elegant tree native to Europe and parts of Asia. Its distinctive white bark, which peels in thin, silvery layers, is the source of its common name. The tree is a deciduous broadleaf species, known for its fast growth and adaptability to various environments. The botanical illustration highlights the tree's intricate details, from its slender, elongated trunk and spreading branches, to its oval-shaped leaves with serrated edges. The delicate, veined patterns on the leaves and the tiny, greenish-yellow flowers are also depicted with remarkable precision. The Silver Poplar has been used in traditional medicine for various purposes, including the treatment of wounds, inflammations, and respiratory issues. The bark was commonly used to make a decoction or infusion, which was applied topically or consumed internally. This exquisite engraving not only serves as a testament to the rich history of botanical illustration but also showcases the timeless beauty and medicinal value of the Silver Poplar tree. It invites us to appreciate the intricacies of nature and the importance of documenting the natural world for future generations.
