EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning chromolithograph depicts the beautiful Mezereon mezereum, also known as Daphne mezereum or spurge laurel. The image is based on a meticulous botanical illustration by Walther Müller, which was originally published in Hermann Adolph Koehler's Medicinal Plants, edited by Gustav Pabst in 1887. The Mezereon mezereum is a small, evergreen shrub that is native to Europe and western Asia. It is characterized by its attractive, glossy green leaves, which resemble those of an olive tree, and its clusters of delicate, pink or white flowers that bloom in early spring. The plant derives its common name "spurge laurel" from its milky sap, which contains a cardiac glycoside called mezerein. The Mezereon mezereum has a long history of medicinal use. It was valued by ancient Greeks and Romans for its ability to alleviate various ailments, including heart disease, gastrointestinal issues, and skin conditions. In traditional European medicine, the plant was used to treat a range of conditions, including arthritis, gout, and diarrhea. The intricate details of the Mezereon mezereum's leaves, flowers, and fruits are beautifully captured in this chromolithograph, providing a fascinating glimpse into the botanical world of over a century ago. The rich colors and vibrant details bring the plant to life, making it a stunning addition to any botanical collection or natural history display.
