EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning handcoloured lithograph depicts Ixine, also known as Abrojo Colorado or Krameria ixine, a medicinal plant native to South America. The botanical illustration was created by David Blair and published in "Robert Bentley and Henry Trimen's Medicinal Plants," a comprehensive work on medicinal plants published in London in 1880. Ixine is a small shrub that grows in wetlands and is characterized by its bright red, tuberous roots. The plant has been used traditionally by indigenous peoples for various medicinal purposes, including the treatment of wounds, inflammation, and fever. The red dye obtained from the roots was also used for body painting and textiles. The intricate details of the plant's leaves, flowers, and roots are beautifully captured in this handcoloured lithograph by Hanhart. The vibrant colors and meticulous shading bring the plant to life, making it a valuable addition to any botanical collection. The publication of "Medicinal Plants" marked a significant contribution to the field of botany and pharmacology, providing a detailed record of medicinal plants from around the world. The work was widely used by herbalists, apothecaries, and medical professionals, and remains an important reference today. This exquisite print is a testament to the beauty and diversity of the natural world and the importance of documenting it for future generations. It is a reminder of the traditional knowledge and practices of indigenous peoples and the continuing importance of botanical research in the development of new medicines and treatments.
