EDITORS COMMENTS
Common Milkweed, Asclepias syriaca, is depicted in this exquisite hand-colored copperplate engraving by Jean Victor Dupin junior from Pierre Joseph Buchoz's Herbier Artificial, published in Paris in 1783. The intricately detailed illustration showcases the milky sap that gives the plant its common name, as well as its distinctive leaves and flowers. Common Milkweed is a native plant of North America and is a member of the dogbane family (Apocynaceae). The plant is known for its importance as a food source for the monarch butterfly, as the caterpillars feed exclusively on milkweed leaves. The engraving also includes the Latin name of the plant, Asclepias syriaca, as well as its common names in French and English. The scientific name is derived from Asclepius, the Greek god of healing, and syriaca, which refers to its Syrian origin. The illustration also includes the names of related plants, including Mandrake, Femelle (Female Mandrake), Atropa, and Mandragore (Mandragora), which are also members of the Apocynaceae family. The beauty and precision of this botanical illustration serve as a testament to the artistry and scientific knowledge of the time, providing a window into the natural world and the understanding of the interconnectedness of all living things.
