EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a stunning illustration from "The Book of Simple Medicines" by Mattheaus Platearius, created around 1470. The artwork, beautifully executed on vellum by Robinet Testard, measures 26x35.5 cm and is currently housed in the National Library in St. Petersburg, Russia. The intricate illumination depicts a scene filled with curative wonders of nature. Various flowers, shrubs, and herbs are meticulously portrayed with vibrant colors and delicate details. Each stem and frond seems to come alive as they intertwine harmoniously on the page. Amongst the array of flora depicted in this masterpiece are two notable plants: the left pea (pisum) and the right lychnis coronaria or campion. These plants were widely recognized for their healing properties during medieval times when herbal remedies played a significant role in medicine. It is believed that this medieval manuscript was possibly made for Louise of Savoy, wife of Charles of Angouleme - an intriguing historical connection that adds further depth to its significance. As we admire this illuminated illustration today, we can appreciate not only its artistic beauty but also its testament to humanity's age-old quest for knowledge about natural remedies and our deep-rooted relationship with the healing power found within Mother Nature herself.
