EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning handcoloured steel engraving depicts Dittany, or Dictamnus albus, also known as Dictame blanc or Fraxinella, in all its botanical glory. The image is a meticulously detailed representation of the plant, created through the intricate process of steel engraving, with the additional artistry of hand colouring by Pierre. The engraving is based on an original botanical illustration by Edouard Maubert, which was published as part of the comprehensive medical botanical work "La Regne Vegetal: Flore Medicale" by Pierre Oscar Reveil, A. Dupuis, Fr. Gerard, and Francois Herincqs in Paris between 1864 and 1871. Dittany, a native to the Mediterranean region, is an aromatic shrub that has been used for medicinal purposes since ancient times. The plant is known for its distinctive burning or bitter smell, which is due to the presence of dictamine, a compound that gives it its therapeutic properties. The plant was traditionally used to treat various ailments, including digestive issues, respiratory problems, and even snakebites. The engraving captures the plant's intricate details, from its slender stems and oval leaves to its small, white, five-petaled flowers. The delicate hand colouring adds depth and dimension to the image, bringing out the subtle variations in colour and texture of the plant. Overall, this beautiful engraving is a testament to the artistry and scientific precision of botanical illustration during the 19th century.
