EDITORS COMMENTS
This exquisite handcoloured woodblock engraving is a botanical illustration of Cowslip (Primula veris), Balsam Herb (Tanacetum balsamita), Cowslip, also known as Primrose, being a popular herbaceous perennial plant native to Europe, and Balsam Herb, a common name for several aromatic plants in the daisy family. The illustration is taken from Adam Lonicer's Krauterbuch, or Herbal, published in Frankfurt in 1557. This particular print is from a 17th century pirate edition or atlas of illustrations only, featuring captions in various languages including Latin, Greek, French, Italian, German, and English manuscript. The Cowslip, with its bright yellow flowers, is depicted in full bloom, while the Balsam Herb is shown with its distinctive, small, white or pink flowers. Both plants were highly valued in traditional medicine for their therapeutic properties. Cowslip was used to treat various ailments, including hysteria, melancholy, and nervous disorders, while Balsam Herb was employed for its antiseptic and anti-inflammatory effects. The intricate details of the illustration are a testament to the skill of the engraver, who meticulously captured the unique features of each plant. The handcolouring adds an additional layer of beauty and depth, making this print a valuable addition to any botanical collection. With its rich history and stunning visual appeal, this botanical illustration continues to fascinate and inspire scholars, artists, and nature lovers alike.
