EDITORS COMMENTS
This exquisite handcoloured woodblock engraving is an elegant representation of two beloved wildflowers of the European meadows: the Field Larkspur, Consolida regalis, and Milkwort, Polygala vulgaris. Dating back to the 16th century, this botanical illustration was originally published in Adam Lonicer's renowned herbal, Krauterbuch, or Herbal, in Frankfurt in 1557. The Field Larkspur, also known as the Tall Larkspur or the Regal Larkspur, is a striking and tall flower with distinctive blue or purple blossoms and a spiky, lanceolate shape. It was often used in traditional medicine for various ailments, including as a diuretic and a remedy for snakebites. The Milkwort, or Common Milkwort, is a low-growing plant with small, white or pinkish flowers that bloom in clusters. It was commonly known as "wild cumin" or "calcatrippa" due to its pungent, cumin-like smell. Milkwort was used in traditional medicine for a variety of purposes, including as a treatment for skin conditions, as a diuretic, and as a remedy for fever and inflammation. This particular engraving is from a 17th century pirate edition or atlas of illustrations only, featuring captions in multiple languages, including Latin, Greek, French, Italian, and English manuscript. The intricate details and vibrant colors of the illustration showcase the beauty and intricacy of the natural world, making it a valuable addition to any botanical or historical collection.
