Culpeper’s Complete Herbal c.1750, Plate 10 Botanical Engraving Reproduction on Canvas
This reproduction of the finely hand-colored engraving from Nicholas Culpeper’s Complete Herbal (circa 1750) represents Plate 10, featuring nine medicinal plants rendered with exquisite detail. Each specimen reflects the healing traditions and natural knowledge of the 18th century, where plants were seen as both remedies and symbols within daily life.
The plants illustrated on Plate 10 are:
-
Longrooted Hawkweed (Hieracium pilosella var.)
-
Hearts Ease (Viola tricolor, Wild Pansy)
-
Hound’s Tongue (Cynoglossum officinale)
-
Herb Robert (Geranium robertianum)
-
Marsh Pennywort (Hydrocotyle vulgaris)
-
White Horehound (Marrubium vulgare)
-
Henbane (Hyoscyamus niger)
-
Truelove (Paris quadrifolia)
-
Hemlock (Conium maculatum)
Plate 10 highlights plants associated with respiratory relief, wound healing, digestive aid, and also some of the most potent toxic herbs known in early modern medicine, such as Henbane and Hemlock. This engraving captures the blend of practical remedies and cautionary knowledge central to Culpeper’s work.
