EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning hand-colored copperplate stipple engraving depicts Sanguinaria or Nevadilla, also known as Paronychia argentea, a native North American plant in the family Rubiaceae. The botanical name Illecebrum paronychia or Illecebro paronichia was also used historically. The plant is shown in its natural habitat, with a few monks or nun-like figures in the background, adding a touch of intrigue and mystery to the image. Sanguinaria, also known as Indian cress or bloodroot, is a perennial herb that grows in wooded areas of eastern North America. It is characterized by its distinctive red sap, which was historically used by indigenous peoples for medicinal purposes, including the treatment of wounds and skin irritations. The plant produces large, white, nodding flowers in the spring, which give way to bright red berries in the fall. This beautiful illustration was created in 1837 as part of Antoine Laurent de Jussieu's Dizionario delle Scienze Naturali, or Dictionary of Natural Science, published in Florence, Italy. The illustration was drawn by Pierre Jean-Francois Turpin, one of the greatest French botanical illustrators of the 19th century. Turpin's meticulous attention to detail and use of the stipple engraving technique resulted in a highly detailed and lifelike image that captures the essence of this fascinating plant. The illustration also includes a few other plants in the same family, such as Tropaeolum majus, or nasturtium, which is shown in the foreground. This combination of plants adds to the overall beauty and complexity of the image, making it a valuable addition to any botanical collection.
