Title: Botanica II
Artist: Susan James

Subject Matter: A 'Botanica' is a place where one can find plants and herbs that restore health and spirit. Historically, the Foxglove has been associated with both the Virgin Mary and the faerie folk. It figures prominently in both folklore and traditional medicine, but is deadly poisonous if improperly handled. However it can heal as well as harm. Compounds are extracted from its leaves to make Digitalis, a medication that is used to regulate heartbeat. Source photo taken May 2018 at Chicago Botanic Garden, Glencoe, IL by Susan James
