EDITORS COMMENTS
This chromolithograph showcases the exquisite beauty of the Persian Chrysanthemum, scientifically known as Tanacetum coccineum, also referred to as Chrysanthemum marschallii. This botanical masterpiece was meticulously illustrated and published as part of Hermann Adolph Koehler's Medicinal Plants, edited by Gustav Pabst, in Germany in 1887. The Persian Chrysanthemum, a native of Persia and Central Asia, is a perennial herb with an enchanting appearance. Its vibrant, scarlet-red flowers bloom in late summer and autumn, adding a burst of color to gardens and landscapes. The plant belongs to the Asteraceae family, which also includes sunflowers and daisies. The intricate details of the Persian Chrysanthemum's petals, stamens, and veins are masterfully captured in this botanical illustration. The rich, earthy tones of the chromolithograph bring out the depth and texture of the plant, making it a true work of art. The Persian Chrysanthemum has a long history of traditional use in herbal medicine. It has been used to treat various ailments, including fever, headache, and digestive issues. The plant contains pyrethrins, which are natural insecticides that have been used for centuries to repel insects and protect crops. This botanical illustration not only serves as a beautiful addition to any home or office, but it also offers a glimpse into the rich history of medicinal plants and the art of botanical illustration. The intricate details and vibrant colors of the Persian Chrysanthemum make it a true masterpiece, worthy of admiration and appreciation.
