EDITORS COMMENTS
This exquisite hand-colored copperplate engraving is taken from Friedrich Johann Bertuch's Bilderbuch fur Kinder, or Picture Book for Children, published in Weimar in 1802. The image showcases two medicinal plants, Manna ash (Fraxinus ornus, 1) and Sarsaparilla (Smilax regelii, 2). Manna ash, also known as European ash or Ornate ash, is depicted here with its distinctive bark, leaves, and a cluster of its samaras or winged seeds. Manna ash was highly regarded in traditional medicine for its soothing properties, particularly for treating wounds and inflammations. The tree's sap was also used to make a sweet substance called manna, which was consumed for various health benefits. Sarsaparilla, shown with its root, flower, and node, is a vine belonging to the Smilax genus. The plant is known for its unique tuberous root, which was used in traditional medicine to treat a variety of ailments, including rheumatism, syphilis, and skin conditions. The sarsaparilla root was also used as a flavoring agent in soft drinks and various food products. This illustration is a testament to the rich natural history knowledge that was passed down through generations and documented in educational materials like Bilderbuch fur Kinder. The intricate details and vibrant colors of the engraving serve to captivate the young audience's imagination and instill a sense of wonder and appreciation for the natural world.
