EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning chromolithograph is a captivating illustration of the Edible Bolete or Porcino Nero, Boletus aereus, and its suspect counterpart, the Lurid Bolete, Boletus luridus, from Leon Dufour's Atlas des Champignons Comestibles et Veneneux (1891). The intricately detailed image showcases the distinct features of these mushrooms, making it an essential addition to any mycology collection. Boletus aereus, also known as the Edible Bolete or Porcino Nero, is a popular and widely distributed edible mushroom. It is characterized by its brown, round cap, and a stem that is covered in pores rather than gills. This mushroom is a staple in European cuisine and is known for its rich, earthy flavor. However, the illustration also includes the Lurid Bolete, Boletus luridus, which is a close relative of the Edible Bolete but can be toxic if mistakenly identified. The Lurid Bolete can be distinguished by its red-brown cap and a stem that is covered in reddish-brown pores. It is important for foragers and mycophiles to be able to differentiate between these two species to ensure safety and enjoy the culinary delights of the Edible Bolete. Leon Dufour's Atlas des Champignons Comestibles et Veneneux was a groundbreaking work in the field of mycology, featuring over 600 illustrations of edible and poisonous mushrooms. This chromolithograph is a testament to the meticulous attention to detail and scientific accuracy that Dufour brought to his work. The intricate illustrations, vibrant colors, and precise labeling make it an invaluable resource for anyone interested in the study of mushrooms and their culinary applications. This historical image not only showcases the beauty and diversity of the Edible Bolete and the Lurid Bolete but also highlights the rich history of mycology and its importance in the culinary world.
