EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the exquisite beauty of the Water gum, Tristania neriifolia. The image, captured by Stanghi in the 19th century, transports us to a world where nature's wonders are brought to life through artistry and precision. Handcoloured with meticulous detail, this copperplate stipple engraving is a testament to the skill and talent of Pierre Jean-Francois Turpin, one of the most esteemed French botanical illustrators of his time. Published in Florence, Italy in 1837 as part of Antoine Laurent de Jussieu's Dizionario delle Scienze Naturali (Dictionary of Natural Science), this illustration has stood the test of time as a valuable resource for botany enthusiasts. The Water gum itself is an intriguing subject. With its laurel-like leaves and delicate pink flowers, it exudes elegance and grace. But there is more than meets the eye - this plant also holds significance beyond its visual appeal. As an edible vegetable, it has played a role in both science and food culture throughout history. Through this print from Fine Art Finder by Bridgeman Images, we are reminded not only of nature's splendor but also our connection to it. It serves as a reminder that even centuries-old illustrations can continue to inspire awe and appreciation for the natural world around us.
