EDITORS COMMENTS
This 14th-century miniature painting depicts Cedar, a tree believed to be harmful to snakes, as described by the Nestorian Christian physician and philosopher Ibn Butlan. The illustration is part of the Codex Granatensis: Tacuinum Sanitatis, a medieval handbook on health and wellness based on Ibn Butlan's treaty Taqwin al-sihha.
In this intricate Gothic art piece, we see the cedar tree towering over a landscape with its distinctive foliage and bark. According to ancient beliefs, cedar trees were thought to repel snakes due to their strong scent and properties. This concept was widely accepted during the Middle Ages when natural remedies played a significant role in medicine.
The artist behind this work remains unknown, but their attention to detail and skill in capturing botanical elements are evident. The vibrant colors and delicate brushwork bring life to this historical representation of nature's power over serpents.
Located in the Granada University Library, this artwork serves as a reminder of the rich history of medical knowledge passed down through generations. It offers us a glimpse into how people perceived plants like cedar for their supposed medicinal properties centuries ago.
