EDITORS COMMENTS
This hand-coloured copper engraving showcases the exquisite beauty of Laurier sauce, also known as Laurus nobilis. The artwork was created by the talented James Sowerby in 1832 and featured in the renowned botanical publication "Botanique Medicinale" by William Woodville and Sir William Jackson Hooker. The image depicts a vibrant yellow flowered sweet bay leaf alongside its berry, capturing the essence of this remarkable plant. Sowerby's meticulous attention to detail is evident in every stroke, highlighting his exceptional skill as an artist. Sowerby's dedication to his craft shines through in this print, as he tirelessly produced over 2,500 plant illustrations for various publications throughout his career. His contributions to Smith's monumental work "English Botany" and "Coloured Figures of English Fungi" are just a few examples of his immense talent. As we admire this enchanting engraving, we are transported back to a time when botanical illustrations were not only scientifically valuable but also celebrated for their artistic merit. This print serves as a testament to both Sowerby's mastery and the enduring allure of nature's wonders. With its delicate details and vibrant colors, this hand-coloured copperplate engraving is truly a treasure worth cherishing. It reminds us of the intricate beauty that can be found within even the simplest elements of our natural world.
