EDITORS COMMENTS
This hand-colored print, titled "Squirting cucumber" takes us on a journey back to the year 1842. Created by the talented artist Mary Ann Burnett, this historic illustration showcases the exquisite beauty of Ecballium elaterium, commonly known as the squirting cucumber. The attention to detail in this drawing is truly remarkable. Every delicate line and stroke brings life to this unique plant species. The vibrant colors chosen by Burnett add an artistic touch that enhances its visual appeal. The squirting cucumber itself is a fascinating subject. Known for its peculiar defense mechanism, it possesses an extraordinary ability to expel seeds forcefully when pressure is applied to its ripe fruit. This natural phenomenon adds an element of intrigue and wonderment to this artwork. Through Olaf Kruger's lens, we are fortunate enough to witness this stunning piece from Plantae Utiliores or Illustrations of useful plants in all its glory. It serves as a testament not only to the botanical wonders found in nature but also highlights the importance of preserving our rich history through art. Whether you are a lover of botany or simply appreciate fine art, this hand-colored print will undoubtedly captivate your imagination and transport you back in time with its timeless beauty and historical significance.
