About the Item
Antique Logwood Botanical Print, Haematoxylon Campechianum, c.1831
This distinctive botanical engraving depicts Haematoxylon Campechianum, commonly known as logwood, a tree valued for its use in producing red and purple dyes. Logwood played a crucial role in the textile and dye industries of the 18th and early 19th centuries, particularly in Europe and the Americas.
The plate originates from Zenker’s Merkantilische Waarenkunde and exemplifies the work’s focus on plants of industrial and commercial importance. The depiction emphasizes the structure of the tree and its material properties rather than floral display, giving the image a sober, utilitarian character.
Original hand coloring is applied sparingly, reinforcing the seriousness of the subject. This plate appeals strongly to collectors interested in textile history, material culture, and early industrial processes.
Condition report:
Moderate toning and surface marks consistent with age. Image remains clear and intact.
Framing tips:
A natural linen or light taupe mat paired with a dark wood frame suits the industrial nature of the subject.
