EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a page from "The Book of Simple Medicines" by Matthaeus Platearius, an ancient treatise on medicine. The illuminated manuscript, created around 1470 by Robinet Testard, features intricate illustrations of various medicinal plants and flowers. In the top row of this particular folio, we are greeted with the delicate beauty of Blue Clematis or Crowfoot intertwined with vibrant Primula blossoms. Their colors harmoniously blend together, creating a visual feast for the eyes. Moving to the bottom row, we encounter Borage or Forget-me-not flowers alongside Marguerita Daisies. These charming blooms exude a sense of tranquility and purity as they grace the page. The attention to detail in this artwork is remarkable; every petal and leaf is meticulously depicted with precision and care. Amidst these botanical wonders, a small snail can be spotted crawling along one stem—a subtle reminder that even within nature's beauty lies hidden life. Accompanying this stunning imagery are c16th annotations that add historical depth to the piece. This print offers us a glimpse into both medieval herbal remedies and artistic craftsmanship from centuries past. Preserved at the National Library in St. Petersburg, Russia, this vellum masterpiece serves as a testament to our enduring fascination with nature's healing powers and humanity's quest for knowledge throughout history.
