Decorative Botanical Engraving of Sedum & Succulent Plants, 1737 Description: An original 18th-century botanical plate from Johann Wilhelm Weinmann’s celebrated “Phytanthoza Iconographia,” one of the most ambitious and visually striking botanical publications of the early 18th century. This finely detailed plate, numbered 93, depicts several varieties of Sedum and related succulent plants, including stonecrop and houseleek. The plants are presented with remarkable botanical detail, showing fleshy leaves, flowering stems, delicate blossoms and exposed root systems. Soft shades of green, yellow and pink give the composition an especially decorative quality. Johann Wilhelm Weinmann (1683–1741) was a German apothecary and botanist. His monumental “Phytanthoza Iconographia,” published in Regensburg between 1737 and 1745, contained more than 1,000 botanical plates and was particularly innovative for its use of color printing combined with hand finishing. The illustrations are today admired both as important works of botanical documentation and as highly decorative examples of 18th-century natural history illustration.
