EDITORS COMMENTS
This exquisite hand-colored copperplate engraving showcases the enchanting beauty of Violet Wood-Sorrel, Oxalis violacea. The intricate details of the delicate flowers are masterfully captured in this illustration, produced by Weddell from a drawing by John Curtis for the continuation of William Curtis's Botanical Magazine in London, published in 1821. The Violet Wood-Sorrel, also known as the Violet-coloured Wood-Sorrel or Blue Wood-Sorrel, is a charming perennial herb native to Europe, Asia, and North America. Its distinctive heart-shaped leaves, which fold up when touched, are a vibrant green hue, contrasting beautifully with the delicate violet-colored flowers that bloom atop slender stems. The botanical illustration reveals the intricacies of the plant's structure, from the veins on the leaves to the intricate details of the flowers. The delicate petals, which are divided into three lobes, are adorned with distinctive yellow markings, adding to the plant's allure. The engraving also highlights the plant's creeping rhizomes, which enable it to spread and form dense mats. The Violet Wood-Sorrel is not only a delight to the eye but also offers various medicinal properties. The plant has been used traditionally to treat a range of ailments, including diarrhea, dysentery, and skin irritations. Its leaves contain oxalic acid, which can be toxic in large quantities, so it is important to handle the plant with care. This stunning botanical illustration is a testament to the beauty and intricacy of nature, and a reminder of the importance of preserving and documenting the natural world for future generations to appreciate.
