EDITORS COMMENTS
This lithograph print, titled "Borage, 1877" was created by Frederick Edward Hulme as part of his renowned work "Familiar Wild Flowers". The image beautifully captures the essence of Borage (Borago officinalis), a starflower native to the Mediterranean region and widely used in herbal medicine. In this close-up still life composition, Hulme skillfully portrays the intricate details of the plant. The vibrant blue petals with their distinctive star-shaped form take center stage against a pristine white background. Each delicate flowerhead is meticulously illustrated, showcasing its unique beauty and charm. Hulme's illustration not only serves as an artistic representation but also holds scientific significance. As a botanist and naturalist, he sought to document and describe various plant species for educational purposes. His meticulous attention to detail is evident in every leaf and bud depicted in this lithograph. The print transports us back to the 19th century when alternative medicine practices were gaining popularity. Borage was highly regarded for its medicinal properties and often utilized as an herbal remedy. Its green foliage adds depth to the composition while symbolizing nature's healing power. This vintage artwork from Cassell & Company Ltd invites us into a world where art seamlessly merges with science and literature. It stands as a testament to Hulme's passion for botanical exploration while reminding us of the enduring allure of wildflowers throughout history.
