EDITORS COMMENTS
Scammony, Convolvulus scammonia, is depicted in this stunning hand-colored copperplate engraving from Dr. Willibald Artus' Hand-Atlas sammtlicher mediinisch-pharmaceutischer Gewachse, published in Jena, Germany, in 1876. The botanical illustration, which showcases the plant in its intricate detail, was produced during the height of the Victorian era when the study of natural history and the production of accurate botanical records were of great importance. Scammony, also known as Purgierwinde in German, is a perennial herb that belongs to the Convolvulaceae family. It is native to the Mediterranean region and is characterized by its twining stems and heart-shaped leaves. The plant produces bell-shaped, white or pinkish flowers that bloom in the summer. The medicinal properties of Scammony have been known since ancient times. The root of the plant was used as a purgative and a treatment for various digestive ailments, including constipation and dysentery. The plant was also believed to have anti-inflammatory and antispasmodic properties. The intricate detail of this botanical illustration is a testament to the skill of the engraver and the dedication of the scientific community during the 19th century to document and record the natural world. The Hand-Atlas sammtlicher mediinisch-pharmaceutischer Gewachse was a comprehensive work that aimed to provide an accurate record of all known medicinal plants, making it an invaluable resource for medical professionals and botanists of the time. Today, this beautiful illustration serves as a reminder of the rich history of botanical exploration and the importance of preserving and documenting the natural world for future generations.
