EDITORS COMMENTS
This hand-colored copperplate engraving, taken from Friedrich Johann Bertuch's Bilderbuch fur Kinder (Picture Book for Children), published in Weimar in 1795, showcases an enchanting array of cereal grains: wheat (Triticum aestivum, grain 1), rye (Secale cereale, grain 2), barley (Hordeum distichon, grain 3), and oats (Avena sativa, grain 4). Each grain is meticulously rendered, revealing their unique textures and intricate structures. Wheat, the most prominent grain, is depicted with its familiar elongated kernels, each encased within a protective husk. Rye, the second grain, boasts a round, plump kernel with a slight crease running down the middle. Barley, the third grain, is illustrated with its small, pearl-like kernels, arranged in pairs along the stalk. Oats, the final grain, are depicted with their flat, oblong kernels, often associated with their distinctive bran flakes. Bertuch's Bilderbuch fur Kinder was an encyclopedic work, aimed at educating children about the natural world. This particular illustration serves as a testament to the beauty and diversity of cereal grains, which have been a staple food source for countless civilizations throughout history. The hand-colored copperplate engraving technique, popular during the 18th and 19th centuries, adds an elegant and timeless quality to the image, making it a fascinating glimpse into the past. This image is a reminder of the rich history of botanical illustration and the enduring importance of understanding the natural world, especially as it relates to our daily sustenance. The intricate details of each grain, captured through the artistry of copperplate engraving, continue to inspire awe and appreciation for the beauty and complexity of nature.
