About the Item
This original old hand-coloured antique print depicts Sagittaria Sagittifolia, known as "arrowhead." It originates from the botanical work "Naauwkeurige Beschryving der Aardgewassen" (Accurate Description of Plants), published in 1696 by Pieter vander Aa and Francois Halma, based on the research of Abraham Munting.
The engraving is noted for its originality, displaying the plant in an imaginative landscape instead of the traditional florilegium style. The copperplate technique used creates intricate details.
What makes this plant significant is its distinct arrow-shaped leaves and its historical medicinal uses, especially in treating wounds and other ailments. Collectors or researchers often search for terms like botanical engraving, Sagittaria sagittifolia, Munting, 1696 prints, or antique herbal plates.
This piece is a valuable blend of science and artistic ingenuity from the late 17th century.
