EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the beauty of Alexandrian senna, also known as Senna alexandrina or Cassia acutifolia. The image is a handcoloured steel engraving by Louis Joseph Edouard Maubert, a renowned botanical illustrator from the 19th century. The artwork was featured in Pierre Oscar Reveil's esteemed publication "La Regne Vegetal: Flore Medicale" which explored the medicinal properties of various plants. This particular illustration captures the essence of Alexandrian senna with its intricate details and vibrant colors. Alexandrian senna is a shrub-like plant that has been used for centuries in herbal medicine due to its laxative properties. Its leaves are sharp and pointed, hence its alternative name "Sene a feuilles aigues". This versatile plant played an important role in agriculture during the 19th century and continues to be cultivated today for both industrial and medicinal purposes. Maubert's artistic talent shines through in this botanical art piece, showcasing his mastery of capturing nature's wonders on paper. The combination of delicate lines and carefully applied colors brings this image to life, allowing viewers to appreciate the intricate beauty of this remarkable plant species. This print serves as a testament to the rich history of botanical exploration and highlights the importance of preserving our natural world. It invites us to marvel at nature's diversity while reminding us of humanity's deep connection with plants throughout time.
