EDITORS COMMENTS
This exquisite hand-colored woodblock engraving is an intriguing glimpse into the world of botanical discovery during the 16th century. The image depicts two distinct plants: Goatsbeard, Aruncus dioicus, and Groundsel, Senecio vulgaris. Goatsbeard, identified by its Latin name and common moniker "Barba caprina," is a herbaceous perennial plant native to Europe and Asia. Its distinctive fuzzy, white, feathery inflorescences resemble goat beards, hence the name. Goatsbeard was valued for its medicinal properties, particularly in treating respiratory issues and as a diuretic. The second plant, Groundsel, or "Senecio vulgaris," is a common weed found throughout Europe, North America, and Asia. Its Latin name is derived from the Greek word "senecio," meaning "old man," likely due to its grayish-white hairs covering the plant. Groundsel has a long history of medicinal use, particularly for treating various ailments such as wounds, skin conditions, and digestive issues. This botanical illustration is taken from Adam Lonicer's Krauterbuch, or Herbal, published in Frankfurt in 1557. This particular print is from a 17th-century pirate edition or atlas of illustrations only, featuring captions in multiple languages, including Latin, Greek, French, Italian, German, and English manuscript. The intricate details of the engraving and the vibrant hand-coloring showcase the meticulous workmanship of the time, making it an invaluable resource for botanical research and historical appreciation.
