EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning chromolithograph depicts the Elderberry, Sambucus nigra, a common plant in Europe and North America. Elderberries have been used in traditional medicine for centuries due to their various therapeutic properties. The Elder tree, from which these berries grow, has been revered for its healing abilities since ancient times. The Elderberry is easily identified by its clusters of small, dark berries that ripen to a deep, glossy black. The plant itself is a deciduous shrub or small tree, with large, compound leaves and white or pale yellow flowers that bloom in flat-topped clusters. The Elderberry is native to Europe, Western Asia, and North America, and thrives in moist environments. The Elderberry has a long history of medicinal use. It has been used to treat a wide range of ailments, including colds, flu, respiratory infections, and even chronic conditions like arthritis and diabetes. The berries are rich in vitamin C, flavonoids, and anthocyanins, which contribute to their therapeutic properties. This beautiful botanical illustration was created by Walther Muller and published in Hermann Adolph Koehler's Medicinal Plants, edited by Gustav Pabst, in 1887. The intricate details of the Elderberry are captured in this chromolithograph, making it a valuable addition to any botanical collection. The illustration not only showcases the beauty of the Elderberry but also highlights its medicinal significance, reminding us of the rich natural resources that have been used for healing throughout history.
