EDITORS COMMENTS
This exquisite handcolored botanical copperplate engraving depicts the Shrub Cinquefoil, Potentilla fruticosa, a versatile plant native to Europe, Asia, and North America. The engraving is taken from Joshua Hamilton's Culpeper's English Family Physician; or Medical Herbal, first published in 1792. Culpeper's herbal was an expanded version of the original work by the famous English herbalist and astrologer, Nicholas Culpeper, and included several hundred additional plants. The Shrub Cinquefoil is identified by its five-petaled yellow or pink flowers, which bloom in clusters, and its reddish-brown stems. The plant's leaves are simple, obovate, and serrated, with a palmate venation. The Shrub Cinquefoil was highly regarded in traditional medicine for its astringent, anti-inflammatory, and antimicrobial properties. It was used to treat various ailments, including diarrhea, dysentery, and wounds. The intricate details of the Shrub Cinquefoil's anatomy are beautifully rendered in this engraving, with each petal, vein, and leaf meticulously captured. The use of handcoloring adds an additional layer of depth and vibrancy to the image, making it a stunning addition to any botanical collection. This historical botanical engraving not only showcases the aesthetic appeal of the Shrub Cinquefoil but also provides a glimpse into the rich history of herbal medicine and botanical illustration. The meticulous attention to detail and the high-quality production techniques used in creating this engraving are a testament to the importance placed on the study of natural history during the 18th century.
