EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning handcolored stipple engraving is an illustration of various strawberry varieties, taken from George Brookshaw's renowned work "Pomona Britannica," published in London by Longman, Hurst, Rees, Orme, and Brown in 1817. The illustration showcases the artistic skill and botanical accuracy of George Brookshaw, a prominent English botanical artist of the time. The image features a vibrant arrangement of strawberries, each labeled with its unique name. Among them are the Golddrop, Pineapple, Hautboy, Chili, Scarlet, Fleshpine, and others. Each strawberry variety is depicted in exquisite detail, with the intricacies of their leaves, stems, and fruits captured through the meticulous stipple engraving technique. The Golddrop strawberry is shown as a medium-sized fruit with a yellow-orange color and a red blush. The Pineapple strawberry, on the other hand, is depicted as a larger, conical fruit with a greenish-white color and a red cap. The Hautboy strawberry is illustrated as a medium-sized, heart-shaped fruit with a bright red color and a green cap. The Chili strawberry is represented as a small, elongated fruit with a red color and a green cap, while the Scarlet strawberry is shown as a medium-sized, round fruit with a bright red color. The Fleshpine strawberry is illustrated as a medium-sized, conical fruit with a white color and a red cap. This illustration not only showcases the diverse range of strawberry varieties available during the early 19th century but also highlights the artistic and botanical prowess of George Brookshaw. As a significant contribution to the field of botanical illustration, "Pomona Britannica" remains an essential reference for those interested in the history of fruit cultivation and botany.
