EDITORS COMMENTS
This 19th-century print, titled "Coconut, banana, sugar cane, etc" is a mesmerizing display of nature's bounty. The handcoloured copperplate stipple engraving showcases the exquisite artistry and attention to detail that makes it truly remarkable. The artwork features a delightful assortment of botanical wonders. At the forefront stands the majestic Coconut palm (Cocos nucifera), with its towering presence and abundant coconuts ready for harvest. Beside it, the graceful Banana tree (Musa paradisiaca) extends its vibrant leaves and tempting fruit. Further adding to this visual feast are the slender stalks of Sugar Cane (Saccharum officinale), offering a glimpse into one of nature's sweetest gifts. Interspersed among these tropical treasures are delicate flowers like Iris germanica and Narcissus poeticus, lending an air of elegance to this composition. Completing this enchanting scene is the fern Cymbidium echinocarpon, which adds a touch of lushness to the overall tableau. Each element has been meticulously drawn and directed by Pierre Jean-Francois Turpin – considered one of France's greatest botanical illustrators – capturing their essence with precision. Published in Florence in 1837 as part of Jussieu's Dictionary of Natural Science, this illustration serves as both an educational tool and a work of art. Its intricate details invite us to appreciate not only these edible plants but also their significance within our natural world. Bridgeman Images' Fine Art Finder brings forth this extraordinary piece from history so that we may marvel at its beauty today.
