EDITORS COMMENTS
This exquisite hand-colored lithograph depicts Horseweed, Erigeron canadensis (Erigeron canadense), a common wildflower native to North America. The botanical illustration was meticulously created by David Blair and later lithographed by Hanhart for inclusion in Robert Bentley and Henry Trimen's "Medicinal Plants" published in London in 1880. Horseweed, also known as Butterweed or Canada fleabane, is a herbaceous perennial that typically grows in open fields, meadows, and disturbed areas. The plant's name, Erigeron, comes from the Greek words "erigo" meaning "to make erect" and "eron" meaning "herb," likely referring to the plant's upright growth habit. The illustration showcases the plant in all its intricacy, with each petal, vein, and seed meticulously rendered in vibrant colors. The plant is depicted in full bloom, with its white or pinkish-purple flowers clustered atop tall stems. The leaves, which are arranged in a rosette at the base of the plant and along the stem, are also illustrated in great detail. At the time this work was published, Horseweed was known for its medicinal properties. The plant was used to treat a variety of ailments, including wounds, coughs, and fevers. The illustration and accompanying text in "Medicinal Plants" provide a detailed record of the plant's appearance and medicinal uses, making this a valuable resource for herbalists, apothecaries, and medical practitioners of the time. Today, Horseweed is still of interest to botanists, naturalists, and gardeners for its beauty and ecological significance. The plant is an important food source for pollinators and serves as a valuable habitat for various insects and other wildlife. This beautiful lithograph is a testament to the enduring allure of botanical illustration and the importance of documenting the natural world.
