EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning chromolithograph print depicts the Jolly Beggar apple variety, a captivating addition to the vast horticultural collection featured in Robert Hogg's "The Florist and Pomologist" published between 1878 and 1884. The intricately detailed illustration was drawn by Walter Hood Fitch and expertly chromolithographed by G. Severeyns in Brussels. The Jolly Beggar apple, a charming and intriguing variety of Malus domestica, is showcased in all its glory in this exquisite image. With its distinctive red and yellow striped skin, this apple promises a delightful contrast between its vibrant exterior and the golden, juicy flesh within. The Jolly Beggar was a popular variety during the late 19th century, and its inclusion in Hogg's publication underscores its significance in the world of pomology. The meticulous attention to detail in this print is truly awe-inspiring. The delicate veining on the apple's skin, the intricate patterns on its stem, and the lush, green foliage surrounding it are all rendered with remarkable precision and artistry. The rich, saturated colors and the smooth, glossy finish of the print transport us back to a time when botanical illustrations were celebrated for their beauty and scientific accuracy. This Jolly Beggar apple print is just one of the 251 hand-coloured and chromolithographic plates of fruit and flowers that can be found in "The Florist and Pomologist," making it an invaluable resource for anyone with an interest in the history of horticulture and botanical art. The collaboration between Fitch, Regel, Macfarlane, Severeyns, and Stroobant resulted in a stunning collection that continues to captivate and inspire us today.
