EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning handcoloured lithograph depicts two exquisite plants from the Cornus genus: the Flowering Dogwood (Cornus florida) and the Boxwood (Cornus boxwood or Buxus sempervirens). The image is based on a botanical illustration by David Blair, as featured in Robert Bentley and Henry Trimen's Medicinal Plants, published in London in 1880. The Flowering Dogwood, native to the eastern United States, is a beloved tree for its beautiful white bracts that surround its pink or white flowers, which bloom in late spring. The tree's attractive bark, vibrant autumn foliage, and distinctive shape make it a popular ornamental plant. The Dogwood's bark and twigs have been used in traditional medicine for various ailments, including rheumatism, dysentery, and diarrhea. The Boxwood, on the other hand, is an evergreen shrub native to Europe, North Africa, and western Asia. It is renowned for its dense, glossy foliage and its ability to maintain its shape and size through pruning. Boxwood has been used in horticulture for centuries due to its versatility and adaptability. Its leaves have been employed in traditional medicine for treating various conditions, such as gastrointestinal issues, skin irritations, and as a stimulant. This lithograph not only showcases the intricate details of these two plants but also highlights their historical significance in botanical illustration and medicinal use. The delicate handcolouring adds an extra layer of beauty and depth to the already impressive botanical representation.
