EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back in time to the year 1880, when economic plants played a crucial role in shaping industries and economies around the world. The wood engravings featured here showcase a diverse range of these valuable plants, each with its own unique significance. At the forefront is the majestic sugarcane (Saccharum officinarum), symbolizing sweetness and abundance. Next to it stands the sugar beet (Beta vulgaris), another vital source of sucrose production. These two crops were instrumental in fueling the growth of global sugar industries during that era. Moving on, we encounter intriguing botanical specimens like black henbane (Hyoscyamus niger) and deadly nightshade (Atropa belladonna). While possessing medicinal properties, they also served as cautionary symbols due to their toxic nature. The enchanting camellia sinensis plant catches our eye next - responsible for producing tea leaves that have been cherished for centuries worldwide. Alongside it stands the rubber tree (Hevea brasiliensis), which revolutionized industrial applications by providing latex for rubber production. Further exploration reveals fascinating specimens such as Astragalus gummifer and Palaquium gutta – both known for their contributions to natural gum production. Lastly, we are introduced to saffron crocus (Crocus sativus), renowned for its vibrant crimson stigmas used as a precious spice throughout history. Through this meticulously crafted wood engraving collection from 1880, artist Z
