EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the exquisite beauty of Calendula officinalis, commonly known as Pot Marigold. Created by Panacre Bessa in 1836, this hand-coloured engraving is a true testament to the artistic brilliance of the 19th century. The illustration originates from "Flore des jardiniers, amateurs et manufacturiers: D apres les dessins de Bessa" and is an extract from "L'Herbier de l'amateur". The vibrant yellow petals of this medicinal plant are delicately depicted, capturing its essence with remarkable precision. With its original variety being the foundation for all cultivated varieties today, Calendula officinalis holds immense historical significance in botanical studies. Beyond its aesthetic appeal, this marigold species possesses therapeutic properties and has long been used to treat dermatitis. Its leaves and stems add depth to the composition while symbolizing nature's healing power. Part of the Historica Graphica Collection, this print not only preserves a moment frozen in time but also serves as a window into botanical exploration during that era. As you gaze upon this enchanting image, immerse yourself in the intricate details meticulously captured by Panacre Bessa's skilled hand.
