EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning chromolithograph depicts a collection of Peziza mushrooms: P. aurantia, coccinea, fulgens, splendens. The intricately detailed illustration was created by renowned mycologist and artist Fritz Leuba in 1890, in Neuchatel, Switzerland. Leuba's expertise in mycology is evident in the accurate and vivid representation of these edible fungi. Peziza mushrooms are a diverse group, known for their bright colors and distinctive caps. P. aurantia, or the orange Peziza, is characterized by its orange-brown cap and yellowish-brown pores. P. coccinea, or the scarlet Peziza, boasts a bright red cap and pores. P. fulgens, or the shining Peziza, is easily identified by its shiny, reddish-brown cap and pores. P. splendens, or the splendid Peziza, features a yellowish-brown cap and pores that turn pink when bruised. Leuba's illustration is a testament to the beauty and diversity of the natural world, as well as the importance of documenting it for future generations. This historical chromolithograph is not only an artistic masterpiece but also a valuable resource for mycological research. Fritz Leuba's work continues to inspire and inform our understanding of the fascinating world of mushrooms.
