EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning handcoloured lithograph depicts the intricately beautiful Hemlock Water Dropwort, Oenanthe crocata. The botanical illustration was created by David Blair and expertly reproduced as a lithograph by Hanhart for the publication "Medicinal Plants" by Robert Bentley and Henry Trimen in London, 1880. The Hemlock Water Dropwort is a perennial herb native to Europe, western Asia, and northern Africa. Its distinctive features include its slender rhizome, which emits a foul-smelling substance when damaged, and its umbelliferous inflorescence, bearing white or yellowish flowers. Despite its attractive appearance, the Hemlock Water Dropwort is a highly toxic plant. It contains several toxins, including an alkaloid called oenanthotoxin, which can cause severe poisoning and even death if ingested or handled improperly. Historically, it was used in herbal medicine due to its diuretic properties, but its toxicity made it a dangerous addition to any apothecary. The illustration captures the plant's delicate details, from the intricate veining on its leaves to the delicate flowers atop its umbels. The handcolouring adds an extra layer of depth and vibrancy, making this a true work of art as well as an important record of this fascinating and potentially dangerous plant.
