EDITORS COMMENTS
This vibrant and captivating print showcases a citrus garden, as depicted in Giovanni Battista Ferrari's renowned work "Hesperides". Engraved by the talented Camillo Congio, this colored engraving was published in 1646 and has since become an iconic representation of the cultivation of citrus trees. The image transports us to a world filled with lush greenery and bountiful fruit. The orangery, carefully tended by diligent laborers, provides shelter for these precious orange trees. As we observe the scene, we can almost feel the warmth of the sun filtering through the leaves and smell the sweet fragrance of lemons lingering in the air. Ferrari's groundbreaking book on citrus tree cultivation fueled an international vogue for orangeries and hothouses during his time. It is speculated that this particular depiction may have been inspired by Cardinal Pios' famous botanical garden in Rome. As we delve into this remarkable artwork captured within The Stapleton Collection, it serves as a testament to human ingenuity and our desire to nurture nature's gifts.
