EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning hand-coloured engraving from the 18th century showcases the exquisite beauty of Bromelia Ananas, also known as pineapple. Part of the Historica Graphica Collection, this botanical illustration by Pierre Joseph Redouté captures every intricate detail of this tropical plant. The artwork depicts a rosette-shaped bromeliad with lanceolate leaves adorned with a serrated and thorny edge. The vibrant colours used in the hand-colouring process bring to life the rich green hues of its foliage and highlight the delicate sepals surrounding its flower. Bromelia Ananas is not only visually captivating but also holds great significance for its edible fruit. The pseudocarp or false fruit, commonly referred to as a pineapple, emerges from the center of this magnificent plant. Its sweet taste and distinct aroma have made it a beloved tropical delicacy worldwide. As we gaze upon this historical print, we are transported back in time to an era when botanical illustrations were meticulously crafted by skilled artists like Redouté. This piece serves as a testament to both scientific accuracy and artistic mastery. Whether displayed in a gallery or cherished within your personal collection, this hand-coloured engraving offers an opportunity to appreciate nature's wonders through artistry that transcends time. It reminds us of our fascination with exotic plants and their ability to captivate our senses while adding elegance to any space they inhabit.
