EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the Citrullus colocynthis, also known as colocynth, bitter apple, bitter cucumber, desert gourd, vine of Sodom or wild gourd. Illustrated with exquisite detail and precision using woodcut engraving techniques from the 19th century, this piece transports us back to a time when botanical illustrations were revered for their scientific accuracy. The artist Nastasic beautifully captures the essence of this Mediterranean fruit-bearing vine plant. The intricate depiction of its leaves and apple-like fruits against a clean white background adds an air of elegance to this vintage artwork. Its obsolete charm reminds us of the rich history and cultural significance that these plants held in both Serbia and historical Palestine. What sets Citrullus colocynthis apart is its sour taste, which earned it various names reflecting its bitterness. This print not only serves as a visual delight but also provides insight into the diverse flavors found in nature's bounty. It invites viewers to appreciate the complexity and diversity present in even seemingly ordinary plants. Whether displayed in a gallery or adorning your own walls at home, this illustration is sure to spark conversations about artistry, botany, history, and our connection with nature throughout different periods of time.
