EDITORS COMMENTS
This watercolor print by Francesco Peyrolery showcases the Labiatae or Lamiaceae family, specifically the Common Sage (Salvia officinalis). The suffruticose plant is depicted with its persistent leaves, making it a perfect choice for borders and rocky gardens. Native to Italy, this versatile herb can be found both in spontaneous and cultivated settings. The delicate strokes of watercolor bring out the intricate details of the plant's structure. The artist's skillful hand captures every nuance of the sage's stem, leaf, and flower. Set against a pristine white background, the vibrant green hues of this botanical masterpiece truly come alive. Dating back to 1752, this illustration belongs to an Herbal collection from the 18th-19th century known as Iconographia Taurinensis. Volume I features Plate 25 dedicated solely to showcasing this remarkable member of the Lamiaceae family. With no people present in the painting, all attention is directed towards appreciating nature's beauty at its finest. Francesco Peyrolery's artwork not only serves as a visual delight but also holds immense scientific value. It provides valuable insights into botany and biology while preserving historical knowledge about common sage cultivation in Italy during that era
