EDITORS COMMENTS
This exquisitely hand-coloured steel engraving depicts Roman camomile, Chamaemelum nobile, also known as Anthemis nobilis or Camomille romaine. The image is based on a botanical illustration by Edouard Maubert, created for the esteemed French publication "La Regne Vegetal: Flore Medicale" between 1864 and 1871. Published by Pierre Oscar Reveil, A. Dupuis, Fr. Gerard, and Francois Herincqs, this work was a significant contribution to the scientific understanding of medicinal plants during the 19th century. Roman camomile is a low-growing, evergreen herb native to Europe and the Mediterranean. Its delicate, white, daisy-like flowers bloom in clusters, releasing a sweet, soothing fragrance. For centuries, Roman camomile has been celebrated for its therapeutic properties. It is most commonly used as an herbal tea or infusion, providing a calming effect and aiding digestion. In aromatherapy, the essential oil extracted from the plant is valued for its calming and anti-inflammatory properties. This intricately detailed engraving showcases the beauty and complexity of Roman camomile, highlighting its various parts, including the stems, leaves, and flowers. The meticulous hand-colouring adds depth and vibrancy to the image, making it a captivating addition to any botanical collection or study of medicinal plants.
