EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a fascinating array of yam varieties, each with its own unique characteristics and medicinal properties. Against a clean white background, the image captures the intricate details of these rhizomatous plants in stunning clarity. In the foreground, we see slices of Dioscorea villosa, known for its potent healing properties. Its tincture is carefully displayed in a petri dish nearby, symbolizing the extraction process used to harness its therapeutic benefits. Next to it lies sliced rhizome from Dioscorea opposita (Shan yao), renowned for its culinary uses as well as medicinal value. Adding further intrigue to this botanical composition is sliced rhizome from Dioscorea hypoglauca (Bei xie). This particular variety has long been cherished in Chinese herbal medicine for its ability to support kidney health and promote overall wellness. The horizontal arrangement of these elements creates an aesthetically pleasing composition that draws viewers into the world of alternative medicine and natural remedies. The absence of people allows us to focus solely on these remarkable plants and their potential applications. Photographed by Steve Gorton from Universal Images Group (UIG), this studio shot not only celebrates the beauty found within nature but also serves as a reminder of our connection to ancient traditions that continue to shape modern healthcare practices.
