Greater Plantain is an engraving by William James Linton, an eminent English wood engraver, landscape painter, and political activist. Created in the 19th century, this work exemplifies Linton's mastery in wood engraving, a form he both practiced and taught extensively. The engraving features the plantain plant, which is often considered a symbol of the commonplace or everyday life. Linton's choice of such a subject reflects his interest in nature and his ability to find beauty and significance in ordinary flora.

The artwork is characterized by its detailed and precise lines, typical of Linton's engravings. His technique involved intricate cuts that produced clear, fine details and allowed for subtle gradations of tone, which was revolutionary in the wood engraving field at the time. "Greater Plantain" not only showcases Linton's technical skill but also his philosophical engagement with nature, echoing the Victorian era's growing interest in botany and the natural world.

This piece, like many of Linton's works, would have been used in various publications of the period, serving both educational and decorative purposes. It reflects the era's intertwining of art, science, and publication, making it a significant piece for study in both art historical and cultural contexts.
