This print showcases the exquisite beauty of a Male Orchis, scientifically known as Orchis mascula. The purple-flowered orchid takes center stage in this handcolored copperplate engraving by James Sowerby, a renowned botanical illustrator from the 19th century. The image features a detailed outline of the bulb and stalk of the orchid, highlighting its unique structure. This particular species is revered for its aphrodisiac properties and has long been used in herbal medicine due to its medicinal qualities. Sowerby's expertise shines through in this botanical illustration, which was originally published in William Woodville and Sir William Jackson Hooker's "Medical Botany" in 1832. Sowerby's dedication to his craft is evident as he meticulously drew over 2,500 plants for various publications throughout his career. This antique print offers us a glimpse into England's natural history during the 19th century. It serves as a testament to both Sowerby's artistic talent and the scientific exploration that took place during this era.
