Scientific plate of herbaceous plants and foxglove poster

Foxglove and herbaceous plants poster, “HERBAL STUDY” plate

A tall flowering foxglove stem dominates this scientific plate, with its pink bells lined up along the stalk. Beneath it, a cross-section of the soil reveals its roots, as in a naturalist’s manual. All around, more modest specimens are arranged with care: plantain, clover and yarrow, each in its place. The greens, pinks and light blue of the sky and lake, with hills in the background, give the whole a studious yet gentle look. The title “HERBAL STUDY” accompanies this vertical poster devoted to the plants of meadows and roadside banks.

An herbalist’s plate for the library or the kitchen

It belongs in an office, a library, a kitchen or a bedroom, anywhere people love objects of study. The vertical format hangs above a work table or between 2 shelves. It pairs well with dark wood, herbal tea jars, old books and pots of aromatic herbs. With other naturalist plates, it can form a small cabinet of curiosities. Give it to an herbalist, to a student of botany or pharmacy, or to a gardener who knows wild plants by name.
