EDITORS COMMENTS
This exquisite hand-colored botanical engraving showcases the intricacies of the Hyssop-leaved Stevia, Stevia eupatoria, also known as Stevia hyssopifolia. Dated back to 1816, this stunning work of art was created by the skilled hands of Weddell for the esteemed Curtis's Botanical Magazine, published by Couchman in London. The Hyssop-leaved Stevia is a plant native to South America, specifically Paraguay and Brazil. Its leaves are renowned for their natural sweetness, making it an alternative to sugar in various culinary applications. However, this engraving captures the plant in its botanical glory, with meticulous attention to detail. The illustration reveals the plant's entirety, from its robust stem adorned with small, oval-shaped leaves, to its delicate white flowers that bloom in clusters at the top. The leaves are prominently displayed, their edges serrated and their surfaces covered in tiny hairs, which give them a unique texture. The veins on the leaves are clearly visible, adding to the overall beauty of the engraving. The Hyssop-leaved Stevia was a popular subject for botanical illustrators during the 19th century due to its unique characteristics and medicinal properties. This engraving is a testament to the artistry and scientific precision of the time, providing us with a glimpse into the natural world as it was discovered and documented. The intricate details of the engraving, coupled with the rich, vibrant colors of the hand-coloring, make this a truly captivating piece. It serves as a reminder of the beauty and complexity of the natural world, and the importance of documenting it for future generations.
