EDITORS COMMENTS
Centella asiatica, also known as Centella, Indian pennywort, or Gotu Kola, is a medicinal plant native to tropical regions of Asia, Africa, and Australia. This handcoloured lithograph by Hanhart, after a botanical illustration by David Blair, was published in Robert Bentley and Henry Trimen's "Medicinal Plants" in 1880. The plant is depicted with intricate detail, showcasing its distinctive round, lobed leaves and creeping stems. Centella asiatica has a long history of traditional use in Ayurvedic and Chinese medicine. It has been used for various health conditions including anxiety, depression, memory loss, and skin conditions. The plant is believed to have adaptogenic properties, meaning it can help the body adapt to stress. It is also rich in triterpenes, including asiaticoside and madecassoside, which have anti-inflammatory and wound healing properties. The plant was traditionally used in various forms, including as a tea, tincture, or topical application. In Ayurvedic medicine, it is used to improve cognitive function and memory, while in Chinese medicine, it is used to promote the healing of wounds and reduce inflammation. This beautiful botanical illustration not only serves as a testament to the aesthetic appeal of natural history but also highlights the importance of traditional medicinal knowledge and the continued exploration of the therapeutic potential of plants.
