EDITORS COMMENTS
This exquisite handcoloured steel engraving, titled "Tropical fruits, fruits de serre chaude ou temperee" (Tropical fruits, fruits grown in a warm or hot greenhouse), showcases a stunning array of luscious and exotic fruits that thrive in tropical climates. The intricately detailed illustration, produced by Edouard Maubert and engraved by Corbie, was originally published in the esteemed horticultural work "La Regne Vegetal: Horticulture: Jardin Potager et Jardin Fruitier" by Pierre Oscar Reveil, A. Dupuis, Fr. Gerard and Francois Herincqs, L. Guerin in Paris between 1864 and 1871. The illustration features six distinct tropical fruits, each displayed with great care and accuracy. The first fruit, identified as Guava (Psidium guajava), is depicted with its green, pear-shaped exterior and pinkish-white flesh. The second fruit, Passionfruit (Passiflora caerulea), is shown with its distinctive purple exterior and golden seeds encased in a translucent, orange pulp. The third fruit, Pineapple (Ananas comosus), is illustrated with its spiky, green exterior and juicy, golden-brown flesh. The fourth fruit, Pomegranate (Puncia granatum), is depicted with its vibrant red exterior and ruby-red seeds encased in a juicy, sweet-tart aril. The fifth fruit, Prickly Pear (Opuntia ficus-indica), is shown with its green, spiky exterior and sweet, edible fruit. The sixth fruit, identified as a Bromelia (Bromelia pyriferum), is depicted with its vibrant, colorful bracts and edible pineapple-like fruit. This engraving is a testament to the beauty and diversity of tropical fruits, and serves as a reminder of the rich botanical heritage that continues to inspire and delight us today.
