EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a lithograph titled "Species of mint" by the English School, dating back to the 20th century. The artwork is part of a private collection and was originally created as an illustration for The Harmsworth Encyclopaedia in approximately 1922. The image beautifully captures various species of mint, highlighting their unique characteristics and intricate details. Mint, known scientifically as Mentha, has been widely recognized for its aromatic qualities and medicinal properties throughout history. From the vibrant green leaves of Mentha piperita (peppermint) to the delicate foliage of Mentha viridis (spearmint), this lithograph provides a visual feast for botanical enthusiasts and historians alike. Other species depicted include Mentha silvestris (wild mint), Mentha pulegium (pennyroyal), Mentha rotundifolium (round-leaved mint), Mentha arvensis (field mint), and Mentha aquatica (water mint). As we delve into this piece, we are transported back in time to an era when encyclopedias were treasured sources of knowledge. This artwork not only serves as a testament to early 20th-century botanical studies but also reminds us of our constant pursuit to understand and document the natural world. With its rich historical significance and meticulous attention to detail, this lithograph offers viewers a glimpse into the fascinating world of mints while celebrating the artistry that accompanies scientific exploration.
