EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning handcoloured steel engraving showcases a delightful assortment of apple varieties, all belonging to the species Malus pumila. The engraving, created by Lebrun based on a botanical illustration by Edouard Maubert, is a beautiful example of the intricate detail and artistry that characterized botanical illustrations during the 19th century. The apples depicted in this print include Reinette Grise, Rambour d'été, Api, Reinette du Canada, and Calville Blanche d'hiver. Each apple variety is rendered with exquisite precision, capturing the unique shapes, textures, and colours of each fruit. Reinette Grise, or Grey Reinette, is a popular French apple variety known for its red-striped, yellow-green skin and sweet, juicy flesh. Rambour d'été, or Summer Rambour, is a French cooking apple with a yellow-green skin and crisp, tart flesh. Api, also known as the Winter Banana, is a yellow-green apple with a long, curved shape and a sweet, aromatic flavour. Reinette du Canada, or Canadian Reinette, is a Canadian apple with a red-striped, yellow-green skin and a sweet, juicy flesh. Calville Blanche d'hiver, or Winter White Calville, is a French cooking apple with a yellow-green skin and a crisp, tart flesh. This engraving is a testament to the rich diversity of apple varieties that existed in the 19th century, and serves as a reminder of the importance of preserving and celebrating the natural world through art and science.
