1. Title: A Triumvirate of Terrestrial Treasures: Porcino Mushroom, Birch Bolete, and Summer Truffle 2.. This chromolithograph, an exquisite illustration from Mordecai Cubitt Cooke's seminal work "British Edible Fungi," published in London by Kegan Paul in 1891, showcases three of the most sought-after and intriguing members of the fungal kingdom: the Porcino mushroom (Boletus edulis), Birch Bolete (Leccinum scabrum), and Summer Truffle (Tuber aestivum). The Porcino mushroom, also known as the Penny Bun or Cep, is a beloved edible mushroom that boasts a distinctive cap with wavy, brown scales and a bulbous, white stem. It is commonly found in deciduous and coniferous forests, particularly under oak and beech trees. The Birch Bolete, or Tinder Wax Cap, is another edible delight, characterized by its bright orange-red cap and white, pores on the underside. This fungus thrives in association with birch trees and is often found in late summer and autumn. The Summer Truffle, a non-fruiting body of the truffle fungus, is a gastronomic marvel, renowned for its pungent aroma and exquisite flavor. It forms a symbiotic relationship with the roots of various trees, including oak, hazel, and poplar, and is typically found from late spring to early autumn. Cooke's meticulous illustration, rendered in vibrant colors, offers a glimpse into the rich history of mycology and botany, capturing the allure and intrigue of these fascinating fungi. This chromolithograph is not only a testament to the beauty of these edible treasures but also serves as a reminder of the importance of preserving and celebrating the natural world.
