The Wood Sanicle
The Wood Sanicle
Founder’s Recommendation: Make it an Art Stack with The Macaw
“The Wood Sanicle” is an exquisite watercolor rendering of the wood sanicle plant, scientifically known as Sanicula europaea. This piece, painted in Strawberry Hill, UK by the British artist, beautifully captures the essence of this herbaceous perennial, noted for its vibrant green leaves and clusters of tiny, star-shaped flowers. The painting emphasizes the delicate structure and natural beauty of the sanicle, offering a glimpse into its role in traditional herbal medicine and its presence in woodland habitats.
The artwork is encased in a robust, midcentury Mexican hand-carved wooden frame, which enhances the botanical illustration with its deep, earthy tones and intricate detailing. Ideal for those who value the intersection of art, history, and natural science, “The Wood Sanicle” combines the fine art of botanical illustration with skilled craftsmanship in framing, making it a timeless piece for any collection. It is truly one-of-a-kind, with an uneven frame and new gallery glass veering on trapezoidal rather than rectangular in shape.
