EDITORS COMMENTS
This exquisite handcolored botanical engraving, titled "Broad leaved Bellflower and Throatwort Bellflower," is an elegant example of the intricate detail and artistry found in Joshua Hamilton's "Culpeper's English Family Physician; or Medical Herbal, Enlarged." Published in London in 1792 by W. Locke, this engraving is a testament to the dedication and knowledge of the botanical community during the late 18th century. The Broad leaved Bellflower (Campanula latifolia) and Throatwort Bellflower (Lamiastrum galeobdolon) are depicted in this engraving, both in their full botanical glory. The Broad leaved Bellflower, with its vibrant blue-purple flowers and broad, lanceolate leaves, is shown on the left side of the image. The Throatwort Bellflower, characterized by its small, white flowers and narrow, oblong leaves, is depicted on the right. The intricate copperplate engraving technique used to create this print allows for the delicate details of each flower's veins, petals, and leaves to be captured with precision. The handcoloring adds an additional layer of beauty and realism, bringing the flowers to life and making it easy to appreciate their unique characteristics. This botanical engraving was likely produced as part of a larger medical herbal, with the intention of providing an accurate and detailed record of the plants for medicinal purposes. The inclusion of both the Broad leaved Bellflower and Throatwort Bellflower in this print highlights the comprehensive nature of the work, as well as the importance of these plants in the medical practices of the time. Overall, this handcolored botanical engraving is a stunning example of the art and science of botanical illustration during the late 18th century. It offers a glimpse into the world of natural history and medical knowledge of the time, and serves as a reminder of the beauty and complexity of the natural world.
