EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning handcolored copperplate stipple engraving is a beautiful representation of American ginseng, Panax quinquefolius, as it appeared in Jussieu's Dictionary of Natural Science, published in Florence, Italy in 1837. American ginseng, also known as five-fingered ginseng due to the shape of its leaves, is a slow-growing perennial herb native to the eastern United States and eastern Canada. It has been used in traditional medicine for centuries, particularly in Chinese and Native American cultures, for its various health benefits. The intricate details of the engraving showcase the unique morphology of the American ginseng plant. The roots are depicted with their typical fibrous and fleshy structure, while the leaves are displayed in their characteristic five-lobed shape. The engraving also highlights the plant's small, greenish-yellow flowers and red berries, which appear in the summer and fall, respectively. This botanical illustration is a testament to the meticulous work of the skilled engravers and botanical illustrators of the time. The use of the stipple engraving technique, which involves the application of tiny dots to create shading and depth, adds a level of detail and texture that brings the American ginseng to life. The publication of Jussieu's Dictionary of Natural Science marked an important moment in the history of botany, as it was one of the most comprehensive works of its time, featuring over 6,000 plant species. This engraving of American ginseng is a valuable historical document, providing insight into the botanical knowledge of the 19th century and the artistic techniques used to capture the beauty of the natural world.
