EDITORS COMMENTS
Rue, Ruta graveolens, also known as the Herb of Grace, is depicted in this exquisite hand-colored copperplate engraving from Dr. Willibald Artus' Hand-Atlas sammtlicher mediinisch-pharmaceutischer Gewachse, published in Jena, Germany, in 1876. The intricate detail of the engraving showcases the distinctive features of the plant, with its serrated, aromatic leaves and tall, branching stem. Rue has a long history of medicinal use, dating back to ancient civilizations such as Egypt, Greece, and Rome. It was believed to possess various therapeutic properties, including the ability to ward off evil, protect against snake bites, and alleviate digestive issues. The plant's strong, pungent smell, reminiscent of citrus and pepper, was also valued for its aromatic qualities. The meticulous illustration in this handbook serves as a testament to the importance of botanical accuracy in the study and application of traditional medicinal practices during the late 19th century. The engraving's elegant design and vibrant colors further highlight the beauty and allure of the natural world, making it a captivating addition to any collection of historical botanical art.
