EDITORS COMMENTS
This exquisite hand-colored copperplate engraving is an elegant depiction of Kinnikinnick and Pinemat Manzanita, two native North American plants belonging to the genus Arctostaphylos, specifically identified as Arctostaphylos uva-ursi (previously known as Arctostaphylos officinalis). The image is taken from Dr. Willibald Artus' Hand-Atlas sammtlicher mediinisch-pharmaceutischer Gewachse, published in Jena, Germany, in 1876. Kinnikinnick, also known as bearberry, is a low-growing shrub with small, evergreen leaves and white or pink flowers. The plant is widely distributed across the northern hemisphere, including North America, Europe, and Asia. Kinnikinnick has been traditionally used by various indigenous peoples for medicinal and culinary purposes. The plant contains arbutin, which is metabolized in the body to produce hydroquinone, a compound that has been used topically for the treatment of various skin conditions. Pinemat Manzanita, also known as pinemat manzanita or creeping manzanita, is a low-growing, creeping shrub with small, rounded leaves and pink or white flowers. It is native to the western United States and Mexico. The plant has been used traditionally by indigenous peoples for medicinal purposes, particularly for treating urinary tract infections. The plant contains hydroquinone and arbutin, which have antimicrobial properties. The intricate details of the engraving reveal the delicate structures of the leaves, flowers, and fruits of both plants, providing a fascinating glimpse into the botanical world of the late 19th century. The hand-coloring adds an additional layer of beauty and depth to the image, making it a valuable addition to any botanical or historical collection.
