EDITORS COMMENTS
This chromolithograph depicts two fascinating fungi species: the Emetic Russula, Russula emetica 1, and the Orange Cups, Peziza aurantia 2. The illustration is an exquisite work of art from A Plain and Easy Account of British Fungi, published in London in 1862 by Robert Hardwicke. The illustration was created by the skilled hand of Mordecai Cubitt Cooke (1825-1914), a renowned English botanist and mycologist who dedicated his career to the study of fungi at the India Museum and the Royal Botanic Garden at Kew. The Emetic Russula, also known as the Sickener or the Deadly Webcap, is a notorious mushroom due to its emetic properties. Its bright red cap and white gills make it a striking and visually appealing specimen, but its bitter taste and potential for causing nausea and vomiting have earned it a less desirable reputation. The Orange Cups, on the other hand, are a more benign and edible species, with their bright orange cups and white stems making them a delightful addition to the forest floor. Despite their name, they do not actually contain any oranges or citrus flavors. Cooke's illustration captures the intricate details of both fungi species, providing a glimpse into the rich and diverse world of British fungi during the Victorian era. The use of chromolithography, a popular printing technique of the time, adds vibrant colors and depth to the illustration, making it a true masterpiece of mycological history.
