EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning 19th century print showcases the exquisite beauty of a Belle Bauce peach, a variety that once held great significance in horticultural history. The image, captured in intricate detail, invites us to appreciate the allure of this luscious fruit in its prime. The Belle Bauce peach, also known as the Clingstone Peach, originated in the United States around the late 18th or early 19th century. Its unique characteristics, including its clingstone nature and rich, velvety texture, set it apart from other peach varieties. This peach was so prized for its exceptional taste and appearance that it was often depicted in art and literature of the time. This historical print serves as a testament to the Belle Bauce peach's enduring appeal. The delicate, hand-colored illustration captures the peach's vibrant hue, with its soft pink blush over a golden background, and the intricate details of its velvety surface and delicate stem. The print also highlights the peach's size and perfect symmetry, further emphasizing its beauty and desirability. The Belle Bauce peach was a symbol of the bounty and abundance of the 19th century American South, where it was widely cultivated. This print not only captures the essence of this iconic fruit but also offers a glimpse into the rich agricultural history of the region. Today, while the Belle Bauce peach may no longer be as widely grown, its legacy lives on through images like this one, which continue to captivate and inspire us with their beauty and historical significance.
