EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning handcoloured steel engraving depicts the Bladder Cherry or Chinese Lantern, Physalis alkekengi, also known as Alkekenge. The intricate detail in this botanical illustration, created by Edouard Maubert and engraved by Lagesse, is a testament to the meticulous work that went into documenting the natural world during the 19th century. The Bladder Cherry is a small shrub native to Asia, with distinctive lantern-shaped fruit that resembles Chinese lanterns. The fruit, which turns red in the winter, is actually a type of berry, related to tomatoes and strawberries. The plant was highly regarded in traditional Chinese medicine for its medicinal properties, particularly for treating digestive issues and respiratory problems. The botanical illustration was published in Pierre Oscar Reveil's "La Regne Vegetal: Flore Medicale," a comprehensive work on medicinal plants, published by A. Dupuis, Fr. Gerard, and Francois Herincqs in Paris between 1864 and 1871. This beautiful engraving not only showcases the aesthetic appeal of the Bladder Cherry but also highlights the importance of botanical documentation in the history of medicine.
