EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "BOTANY: THYME, 1485" takes us back to the medieval era, specifically the late 15th century. The image showcases a beautifully detailed woodcut illustration of Thymus serpyllum, commonly known as thyme. This botanical artwork is extracted from Peter Schoffers Hotus Sanitatis, a renowned book that delved into medicinal plants and their uses during that time. The woodcut technique used in this print adds an exquisite touch to the overall composition. Every intricate detail of the thyme plant is meticulously captured, highlighting its delicate leaves and tiny purple flowers. This visual representation not only serves as an artistic masterpiece but also provides valuable insight into the botanical knowledge of our ancestors. In medieval times, thyme was highly regarded for its medicinal properties and was widely used in herbal remedies. Its aromatic fragrance and antiseptic qualities made it a popular choice for treating various ailments. This print transports us to a bygone era when illustrations like these were essential tools for studying botany and medicine. It serves as a reminder of how far we have come in understanding nature's wonders while appreciating the artistry behind scientific exploration.
