EDITORS COMMENTS
This coloured engraving showcases the unique beauty of the breast-shaped melon-thistle, a remarkable plant that is sure to captivate any viewer. Created by an unknown German artist in the 19th century, this print is now part of a private collection. The intricate details and vibrant colors bring this botanical illustration to life, allowing us to appreciate the delicate curves and contours of each thistle. The breast-like shape of these melon-thistles adds an element of intrigue and sensuality to their appearance, making them truly stand out among other plants. Originally featured in Friedrich Justin Bertuch's "Picture Book for Children" between 1790-1830, this enchanting image has stood the test of time. It serves as a testament to both nature's diversity and human creativity in capturing its wonders through art. In addition to showcasing the breast-shaped melon-thistle, this print also includes depictions of Cactus mammillaris (Mammillaria mammilliaris), further expanding our appreciation for different species within the plant kingdom. Now preserved by ePurix Verlag Volker Christen, this German masterpiece continues to inspire awe with its exquisite composition and attention to detail. As we gaze upon it today, we are reminded that even seemingly ordinary elements from nature can possess extraordinary beauty when observed closely enough.
