EDITORS COMMENTS
1. Title: "Humboldt Nectarine - Prunus persica cultivar" This stunning chromolithograph print showcases the exquisite beauty of the Humboldt Nectarine, a cultivar of the common peach tree, Prunus persica. The image, published as part of "The Florist and Pomologist," a series produced by Robert Hogg in London between 1878 and 1884, is one of the 251 hand-coloured and chromolithographic plates dedicated to fruit and flowers. Drawn meticulously by skilled artists Walter Hood Fitch, Miss E. Regel, and J.L. Macfarlane, this print captures the intricate details of the Humboldt Nectarine. The rich, velvety texture of the fruit is depicted with remarkable accuracy, as are the delicate veins on its surface and the vibrant, sun-kissed hue of its skin. The delicate petals of the accompanying flower are also rendered in breathtaking detail, their soft pink and white shades adding a touch of elegance to the overall composition. The chromolithograph process, a popular method for producing high-quality, colour prints during the late 19th century, was employed to bring this work to life. G. Severeyns and Stroobant, renowned Belgian lithographers, were responsible for translating the artists' drawings into this beautiful, vibrant print. This historical artwork not only serves as a testament to the artistic prowess of its creators but also offers a glimpse into the past, allowing us to appreciate the beauty of the Humboldt Nectarine as it was admired over a century ago.
