EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the delicate beauty of Phellandrium aquatium, commonly known as Fine-leaved water hemlock. The handcoloured copperplate engraving by James Sowerby captures the intricate details of this botanical wonder with remarkable precision. The image is taken from William Woodville and Sir William Jackson Hooker's renowned work, "Medical Botany" published in London in 1832. This comprehensive botanical illustration serves as a testament to the rich knowledge and appreciation for flora during the 19th century. Phellandrium aquatium stands tall on the botanical board, its slender leaves gracefully reaching towards the sky. The fine texture of its foliage is beautifully highlighted through vibrant colours meticulously applied by Sowerby's skilled hand. As we delve into this mesmerizing artwork, we are transported back in time to an era when natural history studies were at their peak.
