EDITORS COMMENTS
This exquisite chromolithograph print, titled "Sops in Wine" or the "Red Cheeked Pippin" variety of Apple (Malus domestica), is a stunning example of the intricate detail and vibrant colors achieved through the chromolithographic process during the late 19th century. Drawn by the skilled hand of Walter Hood Fitch and beautifully chromolithographed by Stroobant in Ghent, Belgium, this image is part of the extensive collection of fruit and flowers published in "The Florist and Pomologist," edited by Robert Hogg in London between 1878 and 1884. The "Sops in Wine" apple variety, also known as the "Red Cheeked Pippin," is a popular and attractive cultivar, characterized by its deep red blush over a yellow background, with a sweet and juicy flavor. The intricate details of the apple's texture, veins, and stem are expertly captured in this print, making it a delight for horticultural enthusiasts and art lovers alike. The publication of "The Florist and Pomologist" during this period marked a significant advancement in the documentation and dissemination of horticultural knowledge, as well as a celebration of the beauty and diversity of the natural world. The collaboration between Fitch, Regel, Macfarlane, Severeyns, and Stroobant resulted in 251 hand-coloured and chromolithographic plates, showcasing a wide range of fruit and flowers. This print is a testament to the artistry and scientific precision of the time, providing a glimpse into the rich history of horticulture and botanical illustration.
