EDITORS COMMENTS
This exquisite handcoloured woodblock engraving showcases two distinct varieties of Sorrel, Rumex acetosa and Rumex acetosella, also known as common sorrel and sheeps sorrel, respectively. The illustration is taken from Adam Lonicer's Krauterbuch, or Herbal, published in Frankfurt in 1557. This botanical masterpiece is a testament to the intricate detail and artistry of the time. Sorrel, Rumex acetosa, is a perennial herb with a distinctive sour taste, making it a popular ingredient in salads and soups. Its heart-shaped leaves and reddish stems are clearly depicted in the illustration. Sheeps sorrel, Rumex acetosella, is a low-growing, rosette-forming plant with smaller, more rounded leaves than its counterpart. Both plants belong to the Polygonaceae family and have long been used for medicinal purposes. This particular print is from a 17th century pirate edition or atlas of illustrations only, with captions in Latin, Greek, French, Italian, German, and English manuscript. The term 'pirate edition' refers to unauthorized reproductions of copyrighted works during the pre-photographic era. The presence of multiple language captions indicates the widespread dissemination and international appeal of botanical knowledge during this period. The intricacy and beauty of this botanical illustration serve as a reminder of the importance of documenting the natural world and the role of botany in medicine and culinary traditions. The use of handcolouring enhances the visual appeal and accuracy of the illustration, making it a valuable addition to any collection of historical botanical prints.
