EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning botanical illustration showcases the Arrowhead, or Sagittaria sagittifolia, in intricate detail. The illustration is a lithograph produced by the renowned French printing house, Verneuil, with exquisite pochoir (stencil) handcoloring by Eugène Grasset. Grasset, a Swiss artist born in 1841, was a pioneering figure in the art world, particularly in the realm of botanical illustration. His innovative designs significantly influenced the Art Nouveau movement towards the end of the 19th century. The Arrowhead, also known as Duckpot Arrowhead or Arrowhead Watermilfoil, is a submerged or emergent aquatic plant native to North America. Its common name derives from the distinctive arrow-shaped leaves, which are arranged in a rosette at the base of the plant. The illustration captures the delicate beauty of the Arrowhead's leaves, as well as the intricacies of its roots and stems. This botanical masterpiece was published in Eugène Grasset's "Plants and their Application to Ornament," a groundbreaking work that showcased the artistic potential of botanical forms. The publication, which was released in Paris in 1897, aimed to inspire artists, designers, and architects by highlighting the ornamental possibilities of various plant species. The lithographic process employed by Verneuil and the meticulous handcoloring by Grasset result in a vibrant and lifelike representation of the Arrowhead. The intricate details and rich colors bring the plant to life, making this illustration a true testament to the artistry and innovation of the late 19th century.
