EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning handcoloured copperplate engraving depicts the Gum Arabic Tree, scientifically known as Acacia senegal or Acacia verek, a significant plant native to the Sudan region of Africa. The tree is renowned for its production of gum arabic, a natural gum used extensively in various industries, including the food, pharmaceutical, and artistic sectors. The image captures the tree's intricate bark texture, its sprawling branches, and the small, yellow-green pods that grow in pairs. These pods contain the precious gum, which is extracted by making incisions in the pods and allowing the gum to seep out. The gum is then collected, purified, and dried for use. The Gum Arabic Tree has been used for centuries due to its versatile properties. In traditional medicine, it has been employed to treat various ailments, such as diarrhea, dysentery, and wounds. In the food industry, it acts as a thickening agent and emulsifier, providing a smooth consistency to various food products. In the artistic world, it is used as a binder in watercolors and as a size for oil painting. This engraving is taken from Dr. Willibald Artus' Hand-Atlas sammtlicher mediinisch-pharmaceutischer Gewachse, published in Jena, Germany, in 1876. The meticulous attention to detail in the engraving highlights the importance of the Gum Arabic Tree during this time, underlining its significance in various fields.
