EDITORS COMMENTS
This exquisitely detailed hand-colored steel engraving, created by Pierre after Edouard Maubert's botanical illustration, showcases two distinct types of boletus mushrooms: the edible Porcini, or Penny Bun mushroom (Boletus edulis), and the lurid Bolete, also known as the Suillellus luridus or the deadly bolete (Boletus perniciosus). The Porcini mushroom, with its vibrant orange-brown cap and white pores, is a highly sought-after edible fungus in Europe, prized for its rich, earthy flavor and nutritional value. In contrast, the lurid Bolete, with its bright red cap and white pores, is a toxic look-alike that can easily be mistaken for the edible Porcini. Both species belong to the family Boletaceae and share similar physical characteristics, making distinction between them crucial for foragers and mycophiles. The lurid Bolete contains the toxin muscarine, which can cause severe poisoning and even death if ingested. This engraving is an essential addition to any botanical or mycological collection, serving as a reminder of the importance of proper identification when foraging for wild mushrooms. The intricate details and vibrant colors bring the unique characteristics of these mushrooms to life, making this an exquisite piece of art and scientific documentation.
