1. Title: "The Enchanting Pineapple: A Floral and Fruity Delight from Friedrich Bertuch's Picture Book for Children (1798)" 2. Discover the captivating beauty of a pineapple in this exquisite handcolored copperplate engraving, taken from Friedrich Bertuch's "Bilderbuch fur Kinder" or "Picture Book for Children," published in Weimar, Germany, in 1798. This illustration, featuring both the pineapple flower (Ananas comosus, flower 1) and the fruit (Ananas comosus, fruit 2), showcases the intricate details and vibrant colors that were popular in children's books during the late 18th century. 3. The pineapple, a tropical fruit native to South America, was a rare and exotic delicacy in Europe during this time. Its inclusion in children's literature not only served to educate young readers about the natural world but also to spark their imagination and curiosity. 4. The engraving depicts the pineapple flower in full bloom, with its distinctive star-shaped bracts unfurling around the central inflorescence. The fruit, meanwhile, is shown in its ripe, golden-brown glory, with its distinctive spiky exterior giving way to juicy, sweet flesh. 5. The intricate details of this illustration are a testament to the skill of the engraver, who meticulously transferred the original artwork onto copperplates to create the final print. The handcoloring adds an additional layer of depth and richness, bringing the pineapple to life in vivid detail. 6. This historical illustration offers a fascinating glimpse into the past, providing insight into the natural history, artistic techniques, and cultural interests of the late 18th century. It also serves as a reminder of the enduring appeal of the pineapple, both as a delicious fruit and as a source of inspiration for artists and writers throughout history.
