EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "American plants (coloured engraving)" takes us back to the 19th century, showcasing the beauty and diversity of American flora. The artwork is part of a private collection and was created by an anonymous German School artist during that period. The image features two prominent American plants: the sugar maple (Acer saccharinum) and the potato (Solanum tuberosum). These plants are meticulously depicted in vibrant colors, highlighting their intricate details. The sugar maple stands tall with its distinctive leaves, symbolizing strength and resilience. Meanwhile, the potato plant showcases its lush foliage, hinting at its significance as a staple food source. Originally published in Friedrich Justin Bertuch's "Bilderbuch für Kinder" between 1790-1830, this engraving captures both scientific accuracy and artistic finesse. It serves as a testament to humanity's fascination with nature's wonders during that era. Preserved by ePurix Verlag Volker Christen and made available through Bridgeman Images, this print allows us to appreciate not only the aesthetic appeal but also the historical context behind it. As we gaze upon these beautifully rendered American plants, we are reminded of our connection to nature and how it has shaped our lives throughout history.
