EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning handcoloured lithograph depicts the Indian Shot, also known as Achira, Meeru, Canna indica, or Canna edulis. The botanical illustration was created by David Blair and published in Robert Bentley and Henry Trimen's Medicinal Plants, a comprehensive work on the medicinal properties of various plants, published in London in 1880. The Indian Shot, a native of South Asia, is a perennial herbaceous plant that grows in wetlands and marshy areas. Its tuberous roots are the edible part, which are rich in starch and are used as a food source in various parts of the world. The plant is also valued for its attractive, vibrant flowers, which come in shades of pink, red, and white. The Indian Shot has a long history of medicinal use. In traditional Ayurvedic and Unani medicine, the plant is used to treat a range of ailments, including fever, dysentery, and skin diseases. The roots are believed to have anti-inflammatory, antipyretic, and antimicrobial properties. In addition, the plant is also used as a food source of carbohydrates and dietary fiber. This beautiful handcoloured lithograph by Hanhart captures the intricate details of the Indian Shot's roots, flowers, and leaves, providing a glimpse into the rich biodiversity of medicinal plants. The illustration is a testament to the meticulous work of the botanical artists and publishers of the time, who dedicated themselves to documenting the natural world and its healing properties.
