EDITORS COMMENTS
This hand-colored copperplate engraving depicts the Common Jasmine, scientifically known as Jasminum officinale, Linn. Sp. The beautiful plant is also commonly referred to as Jasmin commun. The intricately detailed illustration was created by Jean Victor Dupin junior from Pierre Joseph Buchoz's Herbier Artificial, a comprehensive collection of over fifteen hundred European and exotic plants, published in Paris in 1783. The Common Jasmine is an aromatic evergreen shrub native to the Old World, particularly in Asia and the Mediterranean region. It is renowned for its delightful fragrance, which has made it a popular ornamental plant and an essential ingredient in perfumery for centuries. The plant's small, white, star-shaped flowers bloom in clusters, with each flower featuring five petals and a distinctive yellow anther. The engraving also includes several other plants and botanical elements in the background. Among them are the Candlenut Tree (Candlenut, Crotn, Lacifer), the Croton (Croton Lacciferum), and the Burmese Arum (Burm, 204). The Ricinus communis, or Castor Oil Plant, is also shown in the lower left corner. The engraving's rich detail and vibrant colors provide a stunning representation of the botanical world during the late 18th century, offering a glimpse into the fascinating realm of botany and horticulture during this period.
