EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning chromolithograph depicts the majestic Cork Oak, Quercus suber, a tree native to the western Mediterranean region. The image, taken from Hermann Adolph Koehler's Medicinal Plants, edited by Gustav Pabst, offers a detailed and accurate representation of the tree's anatomy. The Cork Oak is easily recognizable by its distinctive, broad, and rounded crown, which can reach up to 15 meters in height. Its leaves are evergreen, simple, and oblong, with a smooth and shiny surface. However, the most notable feature of this tree is its bark, which is used for the production of cork. The bark of the Cork Oak is unique in its ability to be stripped every nine years without causing harm to the tree. This property has made the Cork Oak an essential source of cork for various industries, including wine production, insulation, and even fashion. The bark is harvested by stripping the outer layers, leaving the inner layers to continue growing and providing new cork. The botanical illustration also highlights the acorns of the Cork Oak, which are small, oval, and brown, with a cap that is larger than the body. These acorns are an essential food source for various wildlife, including pigs, deer, and birds. The intricate details of the illustration showcase the beauty and complexity of the Cork Oak, making it a valuable addition to any botanical collection. This piece not only serves as a testament to the tree's natural history but also highlights its importance in traditional and modern medicine.
