EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning print captures the beauty of the Autograph tree, also known as Clusia rosea. The intricate handcoloured copperplate stipple engraving from Antoine Jussieu's "Dictionary of Natural Science" showcases the detailed illustration by Turpin, engraved by Corsi, and directed by Pierre Jean-Francois Turpin. Published in Florence, Italy in 1837 by Batelli e Figli, this artwork is a true masterpiece.
Turpin, considered one of the greatest French botanical illustrators of the 19th century, has brought to life the majesty of this tropical tree with its glossy leaves and unique balsam apple fruits. Known for its feminine flowers and resilience as a houseplant, the Autograph tree is a symbol of natural beauty.
The artist's attention to detail in capturing every aspect of this plant's anatomy reflects a deep understanding and appreciation for botanical science. This enchanting piece not only serves as a work of art but also as an educational tool for those interested in botany and zoology.
Displayed against a backdrop reminiscent of European elegance, this print transports viewers to Tuscany where they can admire the wonders of nature through the eyes of a talented painter. It is truly a testament to both artistic skill and scientific curiosity.
