EDITORS COMMENTS
Virginian Snakeroot, Aristolochia serpentaria, is depicted in this stunning handcoloured lithograph by Hanhart, based on the botanical illustration by David Blair from Robert Bentley and Henry Trimen's "Medicinal Plants" published in London in 1880. The intricately detailed image showcases the unique features of this native North American plant, which derives its common name from its twisted, snake-like tubers. Aristolochia serpentaria is a vine that grows in woodlands and wetlands from the eastern United States to Central America. Historically, it has been used in traditional herbal medicine for various ailments, including snakebites, rheumatism, and gastrointestinal issues. The plant contains aristolochic acid, a compound believed to have antibacterial and anti-inflammatory properties. The lithograph captures the plant's distinctive appearance, with its large, heart-shaped leaves and tubular flowers that resemble the head and body of a snake. The handcolouring adds an extra layer of detail and vibrancy, making this an exquisite addition to any botanical collection. This image serves as a testament to the rich history of medicinal plant research and the beauty of natural wonders that can be found in our world. The intricate details of the plant's structure and the artful presentation of the lithograph make it a fascinating piece for botanical enthusiasts, historians, and anyone with an appreciation for the natural world.
