EDITORS COMMENTS
This coloured engraving showcases the beauty of a German evergreen plant, dating back to the 19th century. The print, part of a private collection, is an exquisite representation from Friedrich Justin Bertuch's renowned "Picture Book for Children" published between 1790 and 1830. The image features two distinct plants: the common ivy (Hedera helix) and the lesser periwinkle (Vinca minor). Both species are celebrated for their ability to maintain their vibrant green foliage throughout the year, hence earning them the title of "immergrAone Pflanzen" or evergreen plants in German. The intricate details captured by this engraving highlight each plant's unique characteristics. The twisting vines and heart-shaped leaves of the common ivy intertwine gracefully, while delicate blue flowers adorn the trailing stems of the lesser periwinkle. Displayed against a backdrop reminiscent of vintage botanical illustrations, this print transports us back in time to appreciate nature's wonders through artistry. It serves as a testament to both German craftsmanship and our enduring fascination with flora. Preserved by ePurix Verlag Volker Christen, this historical artwork reminds us that even centuries later, its charm remains timeless. As we gaze upon this enchanting depiction, we can't help but marvel at how it continues to inspire awe and appreciation for these remarkable evergreen plants.
