EDITORS COMMENTS
This hand-coloured engraving titled "A Pumpkin" transports us back to the 18th century Italian countryside. Measuring at an impressive 55.5x39 cm, this print showcases a vibrant yellow pumpkin against a pristine white background. The attention to detail is evident in the intricate floral motifs that surround the main subject, adding a touch of elegance to this humble vegetable. The artist, Giorgio Bonelli, skillfully captures the essence of this botanical wonder from his renowned work "Hortus Romanus". Published between 1772 and 1784 in Rome, Bonelli's illustrations were celebrated for their accuracy and beauty. This particular piece exemplifies his mastery as he brings life to every leaf and vine. Displayed outdoors under natural daylight, the pumpkin takes center stage with its rich color and distinct shape. Its close-up perspective allows us to appreciate its unique features - from its leafy growth to its delicate flowers blooming nearby. As we admire this hand-tinted masterpiece by an anonymous Italian School artist, we are reminded of nature's bounty and how it has been appreciated throughout history. This enchanting print serves as a testament not only to the artistry of botanical illustration but also to our enduring fascination with plants and their diverse forms.
