EDITORS COMMENTS
This exquisitely hand-colored steel engraving showcases the Japanese star anise, Illicium anisatum, also known as the aniseed tree or sacred anise tree. The botanical illustration was meticulously created by Edouard Maubert and beautifully rendered in engraving by Lebrun. Originally published in Pierre Oscar Reveil's "La Regne Vegetal: Flore Medicale," this rare and intricately detailed image captures the allure and complexity of this remarkable plant. The Japanese star anise is an evergreen tree native to Japan, China, and Korea. Its name derives from the distinctive star-shaped fruit, which resembles the eight points of a star when whole. The fruit, as well as the leaves and bark, possess a sweet, anise-like aroma and are used extensively in traditional Asian medicine and cuisine. The Japanese star anise has a rich cultural history, with uses dating back to ancient China. It was considered a sacred plant and was used in religious ceremonies, as well as for medicinal purposes. In traditional Chinese medicine, it is believed to have various therapeutic properties, including the ability to aid digestion, relieve pain, and fight inflammation. The intricate details of the leaves, flowers, and fruit are expertly captured in this beautiful engraving, providing a window into the past and a testament to the artistic and scientific achievements of the 19th century. This image is not only a stunning addition to any botanical collection but also a reminder of the enduring fascination with the natural world and the beauty of its intricate forms.
