This reproduction of a hand-colored engraving from Nicholas Culpepers Complete Herbal (circa 1750) represents Plate 1 of the celebrated herbal, a cornerstone of early modern medicine and natural history. The plate illustrates nine medicinal plants, each named below the image, reflecting both botanical curiosity and practical healing traditions of the 18th century.

The plants depicted are:

• Alexander (Smyrnium olusatrum)

• Agrimony (Agrimonia eupatoria)

• Alkanet (Alkanna tinctoria)

• Allheal (Prunella vulgaris)

• Amara Dulcis or Bitter Sweet (Solanum dulcamara)

• Amaranthus (Amaranthus spp.)

• Adders Tongue (Ophioglossum vulgatum)

• Angelica (Angelica archangelica)

• Alehoof or Ground Ivy (Glechoma hederacea)

Culpepers Herbal combined classical herbal knowledge, astrological correspondences, and folk tradition, making it one of the most influential guides to plant-based remedies in the English-speaking world. Plate 1 is a vivid example of the blend of science, art, and healing wisdom that shaped botanical illustration in the Georgian era.
