EDITORS COMMENTS
This handcoloured lithograph depicts the intriguing and unique Konjac plant, scientifically known as Amorphophallus konjac or Amorphophallus rivieri. The image is taken from the horticultural masterpiece, "Flowers of the Gardens and Hothouses of Europe," published in Ghent, Belgium, in 1870 by Louis van Houtte and Charles Lemaires. The Konjac plant, native to Asia, is renowned for its distinctive features. The most notable is its large, pungent inflorescence, which emerges from a tuberous root. This inflorescence, often referred to as the "stink palm," can grow up to three meters tall and emits a foul odor to attract pollinators. Despite its unusual appearance, the Konjac plant has significant cultural and culinary importance, particularly in Japan where it is known as "konnyaku." The tubers of the plant are used to make a traditional Japanese food called "konnyaku jelly," which is a popular dietary staple and source of fiber. The plant's rhizomes are also used in traditional medicine for various health benefits. The intricate details of the Konjac plant are beautifully captured in this handcoloured lithograph, showcasing the artists' skill and attention to detail. The image provides a glimpse into the rich botanical knowledge of the time and the fascination with exotic plants from around the world.
