EDITORS COMMENTS
This exquisite hand-colored stipple engraving depicts the Common Hoptree, Ptelea trifoliata, also known as the Stinking Ash or Wafer Ash. Created by the skilled hands of Mixelle laine, this engraving is a beautiful representation of an illustration by the renowned botanical artist Pierre-Joseph Redoute, as published in Henri Louis Duhamel du Monceau's comprehensive work, "Traité des Arbres et Arbustes," published in Paris between 1804 and 1819. The Common Hoptree is a deciduous shrub or small tree native to Europe, Asia, and North America. It is characterized by its trifoliate leaves, which are composed of three oval to oblong leaflets, each with a serrated margin. The plant produces small, yellow or white flowers in clusters, followed by round, brown or red fruits. The Common Hoptree derives its common name "stinking ash" from its unpleasant odor, which is released when the leaves are crushed. The name "wafer ash" may refer to the thin, wafer-like texture of the bark. This stunning engraving captures the intricate details of the Common Hoptree's leaves, flowers, and fruits, providing a glimpse into the natural beauty of this fascinating plant. The use of hand-coloring adds an additional layer of depth and vibrancy to the image, making it a true work of art. Whether used as a decorative piece in a botanical garden or as a reminder of the natural world's intricacies, this Common Hoptree engraving is a must-have for any botanical enthusiast or collector.
