EDITORS COMMENTS
1. Title: "Durum Wheat: The Miraculous Grain of Pastas and Maraconi" This exquisite handcoloured steel engraving, created by Oudet after Edouard Maubert's botanical illustration, showcases the intricacies of Durum wheat, scientifically known as Triticum turgidum. The image is an essential piece from the renowned horticultural publication, "La Regne Vegetal: Planets Agricoles et Forestieres," published by Pierre Oscar Reveil, A. Dupuis, Fr. Gerard, and Francois Herincqs between 1864 and 1871. Durum wheat, also referred to as pasta wheat, maraconi wheat, or Ble de miracle, is a hard, durum variety of wheat that has been a staple in Mediterranean and Middle Eastern diets for centuries. Its grains are characterized by their small size and hard texture, making them perfect for producing high-quality pasta and bulgur. The detailed engraving reveals the wheat's complex structure, with its slender stalks, elongated grains, and protective husks. The delicate handcolouring adds depth and dimension to the image, highlighting the intricacies of the wheat's anatomy. As a testament to the importance of botanical illustrations in documenting the natural world, this engraving serves as a beautiful and informative snapshot of Durum wheat during the late 19th century. It not only showcases the aesthetic appeal of the grain but also provides valuable insights into its unique characteristics and significance in agriculture and culinary traditions.
