EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning hand-colored copperplate engraving by Jean Victor Dupin junior, titled "Copianthus indica" or the Cornucopian shrub, is a beautiful representation of this intriguing and unique plant from the Herbier Artificial by Pierre Joseph Buchoz, published in Paris in 1783. The Cornucopian shrub, also known by its other names such as Elkhorn, Rhombophyllum dolabriforme, Hatchet-leaved fig, Marigold mesembryanthemum, and Lingui formi longiere, is a mesembryanthemum species native to South Africa. The engraving captures the plant's distinctive features, with its long, curved, and serrated leaves resembling the horn of a cornucopia. The leaves are arranged in rosettes at the base of the plant, with the stem elongated and bearing small, yellow flowers. The plant's foliage is covered in tiny, translucent hairs, giving it a shimmering effect. The Cornucopian shrub was a popular subject in botanical illustrations of the time due to its unusual appearance and intriguing name. The engraving is a testament to the meticulous attention to detail and artistry of the time, with the delicate veining and texture of the leaves and the precise rendering of the flowers. The Herbier Artificial was a comprehensive work, featuring over fifteen hundred plates of both European and exotic plants, making it an essential resource for botanists and collectors of the time. The engraving is a beautiful example of the art of botanical illustration, showcasing the beauty and diversity of the natural world.
