EDITORS COMMENTS
This exquisite hand-colored lithograph depicts the luscious Kokum, also known as Amsool or Brindall, a fruit belonging to the Garcinia indica species. The botanical illustration, skillfully rendered by David Blair and beautifully translated into a lithograph by Hanhart, invites us to appreciate the intricate details of this tropical fruit. Garcinia indica, native to South Asia, is a deciduous tree that bears small, greenish-yellow fruits. The Kokum fruit, oblong in shape and about the size of a mango, is covered in a thin, red to orange rind, which is used extensively in various culinary and medicinal applications. The fruit's tender, juicy pulp is tangy and sour, with a unique, pleasantly bitter taste. Historically, the Kokum tree has held significant importance in traditional Ayurvedic and Unani systems of medicine. The fruit, leaves, and bark have been used to treat a range of ailments, including digestive issues, skin conditions, and fevers. The fruit's high vitamin C content and antioxidant properties make it a valuable addition to herbal remedies. The Kokum tree is also known for its versatility in the culinary world. In India, the fruit is widely used to prepare pickles, chutneys, and beverages. The sour taste of Kokum is particularly popular in Maharashtrian cuisine, where it is used to flavor dishes such as Kokum Ras and Sol Kadhi. This lithograph not only serves as a beautiful decorative piece but also offers a glimpse into the rich cultural and medicinal history of the Kokum fruit. Its intricate details and vibrant colors bring to life the unique characteristics of this tropical treasure, making it a must-have for any botanical art collection.
