EDITORS COMMENTS
1. Title: A Vibrant Display of Spurge Laurel, Daphne Laureola, and Bristly Bellflower This handcoloured woodblock engraving showcases three intriguing plant species: Spurge Laurel (Daphne laureola), Daphne Laureola, and the Bristly Bellflower (Campanula cervicaria). The botanical illustration is an exquisite example from Adam Lonicer's Krauterbuch, or Herbal, published in Frankfurt in 1557. This specific print is believed to originate from a 17th-century pirate edition or atlas of illustrations, featuring captions in various languages, including Latin, Greek, French, Italian, and English manuscript. The Spurge Laurel, also known as Chamaedaphne laureola, is a small, evergreen shrub with aromatic leaves that resemble those of bay laurel. It is native to Europe, North Africa, and Western Asia and was traditionally used for medicinal purposes, particularly for treating gastrointestinal issues. The Daphne Laureola, or Daphne, is a poisonous shrub with attractive pink or white flowers. It has a long history of use in herbal medicine, particularly for women's health, including menstrual disorders and infertility. The third plant depicted, the Bristly Bellflower (Campanula cervicaria), is a perennial herb with distinctive bell-shaped flowers. It is native to Europe and has been used in traditional medicine for various ailments, including respiratory issues and as a diuretic. This stunning botanical illustration not only showcases the beauty and intricacy of these plants but also highlights the rich history of botany and the importance of plant-based medicines in various cultures throughout history.
