EDITORS COMMENTS
This exquisite hand-colored steel engraving depicts the Chinese rhubarb, or Rheum palmatum, also known as Rhubarbe palmee. The image is based on a botanical illustration by Edouard Maubert and was engraved by Debray for the prestigious French publication "La Regne Vegetal: Flore Medicale," published by Pierre Oscar Reveil, A. Dupuis, Fr. Gerard, and Francois Herincqs between 1864 and 1871. Chinese rhubarb, native to China, is a perennial herb that has long been used in traditional Chinese medicine for its medicinal properties. The plant is characterized by its large, palmate leaves and long, fleshy rhizomes, which are the part of the plant that is harvested for medicinal use. In traditional Chinese medicine, Chinese rhubarb is used to treat a variety of ailments, including constipation, fevers, and skin conditions. The intricate detail in this engraving showcases the beauty and complexity of the Chinese rhubarb plant. The leaves are depicted in various stages of maturity, with some displaying their characteristic lobed shape and others unfurling from their stems. The rhizomes are shown in cross-section, revealing their fibrous structure and the distinctive red color that is indicative of the plant's medicinal properties. This botanical illustration not only serves as a stunning work of art but also provides valuable insight into the botanical knowledge of the late 19th century. It is a testament to the meticulous work of the botanical illustrators and engravers of the time, who dedicated themselves to accurately documenting the natural world for scientific and medicinal purposes.
