EDITORS COMMENTS
Masterwort, Peucedanum ostruthium (previously known as Imperatoria ostruthium), is a herbaceous perennial plant native to Europe, North Africa, and western Asia. This stunning handcoloured copperplate engraving is an exquisite example of botanical illustration from Dr. Willibald Artus' Hand-Atlas sammtlicher mediinisch-pharmaceutischer Gewachse, published in Jena, Germany in 1876. Masterwort derives its common name from its historical use as a master herb in traditional medicine. The plant was highly regarded for its ability to promote menstruation and relieve menstrual cramps. It was also used to treat various other ailments, including digestive issues, respiratory problems, and skin conditions. The plant is characterized by its tall, branching stems, which can grow up to 1 meter in height. The leaves are compound, with multiple leaflets arranged in a rosette at the base of the plant and along the stem. The flowers are small and white or pink, arranged in umbels. This beautiful botanical illustration captures the intricate details of Masterwort's foliage, flowers, and stems, providing a window into the natural world of the late 19th century. The meticulous handcolouring adds depth and vibrancy to the image, making it a true work of art. Botanical illustrations like this one were essential tools for scientists, physicians, and herbalists during the time when modern medicine was still in its infancy. They provided accurate records of plant specimens and facilitated the identification and classification of new species. Today, they continue to inspire awe and fascination, offering a glimpse into the rich history of botanical exploration and discovery.
