1. Title: Hedge Mustard (Sisymbrium officinale) - A Vibrant Botanical Masterpiece from the 19th Century This exquisite handcoloured steel engraving showcases the intricate details of Hedge Mustard (Sisymbrium officinale), a common wildflower native to Europe and Western Asia. The engraving, created by Alphonse-Leon Noel based on an original botanical illustration by Edouard Maubert, is a stunning example of the meticulous work carried out during the 19th century for the publication "La Regne Vegetal: Flore Medicale" by Pierre Oscar Reveil, A. Dupuis, Fr. Gerard, and Francois Herincqs. The Hedge Mustard plant is depicted in all its glory, with its slender, branched stem adorned with delicate, serrated leaves and small, yellow flowers. The engraving captures the delicate interplay of light and shadow, highlighting the intricate veining on the leaves and the delicate petals of the flower. The handcolouring adds a vibrant touch to the engraving, bringing the plant to life and enhancing its natural beauty. Botanical illustrations and engravings like this one were essential during the 19th century, as they provided accurate records of plant species for scientific and medicinal purposes. The intricacy and detail of this engraving are a testament to the dedication and skill of the artists and engravers of the time, who painstakingly documented the natural world for future generations to appreciate and learn from. This Hedge Mustard engraving is a beautiful addition to any botanical collection, offering a glimpse into the rich history of botanical illustration and the importance of documenting the natural world.
