EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning chromolithograph print showcases the exquisite beauty of the Stanwick Elruge Nectarine, a prized cultivar of the Prunus persica, or common peach, tree. The image, published between 1878 and 1884 as part of The Florist and Pomologist, a comprehensive horticultural work by Robert Hogg in London, is a testament to the meticulous attention to detail and artistic prowess of the time. The intricately hand-colored and chromolithographic plate was drawn by renowned botanical artists Walter Hood Fitch, Miss E. Regel, and J.L. Macfarlane, and expertly lithographed by G. Severeyns and Stroobant in Belgium. The result is a vivid and lifelike representation of the Stanwick Elruge Nectarine, with its rich, velvety texture and rosy-hued, succulent fruit. The Stanwick Elruge Nectarine was a popular cultivar during the late 19th century, and its inclusion in The Florist and Pomologist reflects its significance in the horticultural world. The print serves not only as a record of this historical cultivar but also as a work of art, showcasing the beauty and allure of the fruit and the skill of the artists and craftsmen involved in its creation. This print offers a glimpse into the past, transporting us back to a time when botanical illustration was a celebrated art form and the study of horticulture was a source of great fascination and pride. It serves as a reminder of the rich history of fruit cultivation and the role that artists and scientists have played in documenting and preserving it for future generations.
