EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning watercolor print by Angela Rossi Bottione captures the vibrant beauty of a Pineapple (Ananas comosus), a member of the Bromeliaceae family. Created between 1812 and 1837, this artwork is part of the Herbal collection from the 18th to 19th century in Iconographia Taurinensis. The pineapple depicted here is not only known for its delicious fruit but also as an ornamental plant native to tropical America. Its succulent leaves and intricate details are brought to life through Bottione's skillful brushstrokes, showcasing her mastery in botanical illustration. Set against a clean white background, this vertical composition highlights every aspect of the pineapple's anatomy – from its spiky green crown to its golden yellow flesh. The meticulous attention given to each leaf and segment demonstrates both Bottione's artistic talent and her dedication to accurately representing nature. This watercolor painting serves as a testament to the intersection between art and science, encapsulating centuries-old knowledge about botany and biology. It invites viewers into a world where plants become works of art themselves, celebrating their inherent beauty. As we admire this exquisite piece, let us appreciate Angela Rossi Bottione's contribution in preserving botanical history through her remarkable illustrations found within Iconographia Taurinensis.
