EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the exquisite artwork of George Brookshaw, a British creator renowned for his Pomona Britannica series. Titled "No. 64 - Scarlet Flesh Romana Melon, 1812" this particular piece transports us to Hampton Court Palace's gardens, where the most celebrated fruits in London were cultivated. Pomona Britannica was an opulent book dedicated to showcasing England's most beautiful fruit varieties. Comprising 90 plates with dark aquatint backgrounds, it served as a testament to the country's horticultural prowess during the 19th century. In this image, we are treated to a close-up view of a Scarlet Flesh Romana Melon. The vibrant red hue of its flesh is perfectly captured by Brookshaw's meticulous brushstrokes and attention to detail. The melon appears luscious and succulent, enticing viewers with its juicy appeal. Brookshaw's mastery lies not only in his ability to depict nature but also in his skillful use of aquatint technique—a method that adds depth and texture through tonal variations—enhancing the overall visual impact of his work. As we admire this print from Heritage Art/Heritage Images at The Cleveland Museum of Art, we are transported back in time when these sumptuous fruits graced royal tables and delighted discerning palates across England. It serves as both a historical document and an artistic masterpiece that celebrates the beauty found within nature's bounty.
