EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases an exquisite illustration from the Book of Simple Medicines by Mattheaus Platearius, created around 1470. The artwork, titled "Ms Fr. Fv VI #1 fol. 162v Drawing sap from a tree" was skillfully crafted by Robinet Testard and measures 26x35.5 cm. Housed in the National Library of St. Petersburg, Russia, this vellum manuscript is believed to have been intended for Louise of Savoy, wife of Charles of Angouleme. In this enchanting scene, we witness a female herbalist diligently drawing sap from a majestic tree using a ladle and collecting it in a cup placed beneath its trunk. She stands beside a young sapling symbolizing growth and rejuvenation through nature's healing powers. Accompanied by her male assistant holding a keg filled with medicinal herbs, they embody the essence of ancient wisdom and curative practices. The illumination technique employed in this artwork adds depth and vibrancy to every intricate detail - from the healer's flowing robes to the delicate bonesetter tools adorning their surroundings. This mesmerizing composition not only captures the artistry but also evokes our curiosity about traditional remedies passed down through generations.

It serves as a poignant reminder that even amidst modern advancements in medicine, there
