EDITORS COMMENTS
1. Title: Bay Laurel or Sweet Bay, Laurus nobilis This hand-colored copperplate engraving depicts the Bay Laurel, scientifically known as Laurus nobilis. The Bay Laurel is an evergreen shrub or small tree, native to the Mediterranean region, with glossy, aromatic leaves and yellow or white flowers. The Bay Laurel has held a significant place in history and mythology for its fragrant leaves, which have been used for culinary, medicinal, and ornamental purposes since ancient times. In Greek and Roman mythology, the Bay Laurel was associated with Apollo, the god of the sun, music, and prophecy, and was used to crown poets, priests, and victors in the Olympic Games. In the medical and pharmaceutical world, the Bay Laurel has been used for various therapeutic applications. The leaves are rich in essential oils, including eucalyptol and alpha-terpineol, which have antiseptic, anti-inflammatory, and analgesic properties. The plant has been used to treat digestive disorders, respiratory problems, and neurological conditions. The engraving shows the Bay Laurel in its natural habitat, with its glossy, dark green leaves and small, yellow flowers. The intricate details and vibrant colors of the illustration highlight the botanical beauty and medicinal significance of this versatile plant. This hand-colored copperplate engraving is from Dr. Willibald Artus' Hand-Atlas sammtlicher mediinisch-pharmaceutischer Gewachse, published in Jena, Germany, in 1876. The Handbook of all medical-pharmaceutical plants was a comprehensive and detailed reference work that documented over 3,000 plant species and their medicinal uses. The engraving is a testament to the meticulous work and dedication of the botanical illustrators and scientists of the time, who sought to document and preserve the natural world for future generations.
