EDITORS COMMENTS
This exquisite hand-colored steel engraving depicts Thale cress, also known as Arabidopsis thaliana, a small herbaceous plant native to Europe and Asia. The intricate details of its delicate flowers and leaves are beautifully rendered in this botanical illustration, created by Edouard Maubert and skillfully engraved by Alphonse-Leon Noel. The image is taken from Pierre Oscar Reveil's "La Regne Vegetal: Flore Medicale," published by A. Dupuis, Fr. Gerard, and Francois Herincqs in Paris between 1864 and 1871. Thale cress, also referred to as mouse-ear cress or Arabette rameuse, is a popular model organism in modern plant biology research due to its small size, short life cycle, and ease of cultivation. Its genome was the first plant genome to be fully sequenced, providing valuable insights into plant genetics and evolution. This engraving serves as a testament to the meticulous attention to detail and artistic skill of the botanical illustrators and engravers of the 19th century. The intricate lines and vibrant colors capture the essence of the Thale cress, allowing us to appreciate its beauty and intricacy even centuries after its discovery.
