For centuries, people all over the world have been relying on a handful of plants to make up a sizeable portion of their food. When it comes to Indian cuisine, specifically, plants have always directly or indirectly contributed to its richness – right from fruits and vegetables at its base to aromatic herbs and spices which lend flavour, colour and texture. However, not all Indian plants are created the same – their usage varies substantially throughout the country, not just because of their local availability but also because of their seasonal character.Over the years, artists have attempted to document different plant species to create a record of all known specimens in the only way they knew how… through illustrations.
