EDITORS COMMENTS
This exquisite hand-colored copperplate stipple engraving depicts the luscious Sugar Apple, Annona squamosa, from Antoine Jussieu's Dictionary of Natural Science, published in Florence, Italy, in 1837. The illustration was produced under the direction of Pierre Jean-Francois Turpin, a renowned French botanical illustrator of the 19th century. Turpin's meticulous attention to detail and mastery of the stipple engraving technique are evident in the intricate textures and patterns rendered on the Sugar Apple's vibrant, tropical skin. The Sugar Apple, also known as Anona or Sweet Sop, is a native of Central and South America. Its distinctive, spiky exterior conceals juicy, sweet, and edible arils, which are encased in a translucent, mucilaginous pulp. The fruit's unique structure and alluring appearance have made it a popular subject for botanical illustrations throughout history. This particular illustration was produced by Turpin and engraved by Corsi. The collaboration between these talented artists resulted in a stunning representation of the Sugar Apple that captures both its botanical accuracy and aesthetic appeal. The illustration's historical significance is further underscored by its publication in Jussieu's esteemed Dictionary of Natural Science, which was a groundbreaking work in the field of natural history at the time. The intricate hand-coloring adds an additional layer of beauty and depth to the illustration, making it a valuable addition to any botanical or historical collection. This image invites us to explore the rich natural world and appreciate the artistry and scientific rigor of the past.
