EDITORS COMMENTS
1. Title: Milk Thistle and Globe Artichoke: A Botanical Discovery from the 16th Century This exquisite handcoloured woodblock engraving showcases two fascinating plants, Milk Thistle (Silybum marianum) and Globe Artichoke (Cynara cardunculus var. scolymus), as they were depicted in the botanical world during the 16th century. The illustration is taken from Adam Lonicer's renowned herbal, "Krauterbuch," or Herbal, published in Frankfurt in 1557. Milk Thistle, also known as Marian Thistle, is a well-known medicinal plant with distinctive spiny leaves and a purple flower head. The plant's name is derived from the milky sap that exudes when the leaves are bruised. Milk Thistle has been used for centuries to support liver health and protect against various liver disorders. Adjacent to Milk Thistle lies the Globe Artichoke, characterized by its large, spiky, and edible flower head. This plant is native to the Mediterranean and is known for its culinary and medicinal properties. The edible part of the artichoke is the immature flower head, which is rich in nutrients and has a unique taste. Globe Artichoke has been used in traditional medicine to aid digestion and lower cholesterol levels. This botanical illustration is a testament to the meticulous work of the 16th-century botanists and artists. The intricate details of the plants' structures are beautifully captured in this woodblock engraving. The illustration is part of a 17th-century pirate edition or atlas of botanical illustrations, featuring captions in Latin, Greek, French, Italian, German, and English manuscripts. The handcolouring adds an extra layer of beauty and depth to the already stunning artwork. This image serves as a reminder of the rich botanical knowledge that existed during the Renaissance period and the importance of preserving and appreciating the natural world.
