EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases an exquisite illustration from the Book of Simple Medicines, a medieval manuscript believed to have been made for Louise of Savoy, wife of Charles of Angouleme. Created by Mattheaus Platearius around 1470 and beautifully illuminated by Robinet Testard, this piece measures 26x35.5 cm and is currently housed in the National Library in St. Petersburg, Russia. The image itself depicts a scene filled with natural healing remedies. In the foreground, we see vibrant root and marsh valerian flowers blooming gracefully alongside delicate daisy stems. The intricate details captured on vellum bring these botanical elements to life, showcasing their medicinal properties. This illustration serves as a testament to the importance of herbalism during medieval times when traditional medicine relied heavily on nature's offerings. The leaves and roots depicted here were used for their curative powers by healers and bonesetters alike. With its rich history and stunning craftsmanship, this illuminated artwork transports us back in time to an era where knowledge was sought through ancient texts like the Book of Simple Medicines. It reminds us that even centuries ago, people recognized the power of plants in promoting healing and well-being.
