EDITORS COMMENTS
This handcoloured woodblock engraving from Adam Lonicer's Krauterbuch showcases a variety of grains including Ustilago, darnel (Lolium temulentum), and wall barley (Hordeum murinum). Dating back to 1557, this botanical illustration provides a glimpse into the world of herbal medicine in 16th century Germany.
The intricate details and vibrant colors bring these plants to life, highlighting their importance in medical botany during that time. The captions in Latin, Greek, French, Italian, German, and English add an educational element to the piece, making it a valuable resource for studying various plant species.
Each plant depicted serves a different purpose - from grain varieties used for food production to medicinal herbs with healing properties. This print is not just a beautiful work of art but also a historical document that sheds light on the natural world as seen through the eyes of early botanists.
As we admire this botanical board filled with diverse plant species, we are reminded of the rich history behind each one. From Lolium temulentum to Hordeum murinum, each plant has its own story to tell about its uses and significance in past societies. This engraving is truly a treasure trove of knowledge waiting to be explored.
