EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the exquisite beauty of the Mayapple or American mandrake, scientifically known as Podophyllum peltatum. The artwork, created by Louis Joseph Edouard Maubert in the 19th century, is a handcoloured steel engraving that depicts this remarkable plant in all its glory. The Mayapple, also referred to as Podophylle pelte, is a shrub-like plant with vibrant green leaves and delicate white flowers. Its unique appearance and medicinal properties have made it an intriguing subject for botanical artists throughout history. In this particular illustration, Maubert's attention to detail is evident as he captures every intricate feature of the Mayapple. From the elegant shape of its leaves to the subtle hues used in coloring them, each element contributes to creating a lifelike representation. This artwork was originally featured in Pierre Oscar Reveil's renowned publication "La Regne Vegetal: Flore Medicale" which aimed to explore various plants' medicinal uses. The inclusion of this piece highlights not only its aesthetic appeal but also its significance within herbal medicine practices during that time period. With its rich history and artistic excellence, this print serves as a testament to both nature's wonders and human creativity.
