EDITORS COMMENTS
This handcoloured steel engraving depicts the Rowan or Mountain Ash tree, Sorbus aucuparia, also known as the European Rowan or Bird Cherry, Sorbier des oiseleurs in French. The tree is beautifully illustrated in this botanical print, which is a reproduction of an original work by Edouard Maubert, created around 1864-1871. The engraving was executed by Oudet for the horticultural and forestry publication, "La Regne Vegetal: Planets Agricoles et Forestieres," published by L. Guerin in Paris. The Rowan tree is a deciduous shrub or small tree native to Europe, North Africa, and western Asia. It is widely recognized for its bright red or orange-red berries, which ripen in late summer and are an essential food source for many birds, particularly thrushes and waxwings. The tree is also known for its beautiful white or pink flowers, which bloom in late spring. The Rowan tree has been used for various purposes throughout history. Its wood has been used for making tools, furniture, and even musical instruments. The tree's bark has been used for medicinal purposes, particularly for treating wounds and inflammation. The tree's leaves and berries have also been used as fodder for livestock. The Rowan tree holds cultural significance in many European traditions. In Norse mythology, the tree was considered sacred and was believed to protect against witchcraft and evil spirits. In some areas, it was also believed that the tree's berries could ward off snake bites. Today, the Rowan tree is a beloved symbol of autumn and a reminder of the beauty and diversity of the natural world.
