Agriculture Berry Blackberry Department Fruticosus Hoen Passmore Pomologist Report Rubus Eldorado
EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning chromolithograph depicts the Eldorado blackberry, Rubus fruticosus, as illustrated by D.G. Passmore for the Report of the Pomologist, published by the US Department of Agriculture in 1892. The image was produced by the renowned printing firm of Hoen. The Eldorado blackberry is a thorny shrub native to North America, bearing large, juicy, and sweet blackberries. The intricate details of the plant's leaves, flowers, and fruit are beautifully rendered in this botanical illustration. The Eldorado blackberry was of great interest to agricultural scientists and horticulturists of the time due to its high productivity and excellent flavor. This print not only serves as a testament to the beauty and complexity of natural forms but also represents the significant role of botanical illustration in documenting and preserving plant species for scientific and horticultural purposes.
