EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the Chinese yam or cinnamon-vine, also known as Dioscorea polystachya or Dioscorea batatas. The image is a handcoloured steel engraving by Edouard Maubert, capturing the intricate details of this botanical wonder. The Chinese yam, native to East Asia, is depicted in all its glory with its sprawling vines and lush foliage. This plant has been an integral part of agriculture for centuries due to its versatile uses and nutritional value. Its tubers are not only delicious but also highly nutritious, making it a staple food in many Asian cuisines.

The engraving beautifully captures the essence of nature's beauty while highlighting the importance of agricultural practices during the 19th century.
