This print showcases the Javillo or antidote caccoon fruit, Fevillea cordifolia, a botanical wonder that mesmerizes with its unique beauty. The handcoloured copperplate stipple engraving from Antoine Laurent de Jussieu's Dizionario delle Scienze Naturali takes us back to 19th century Florence, Italy. The intricate illustration was engraved by Corsi under the direction of Pierre Jean-Francois Turpin, an esteemed French botanical illustrator of his time. Turpin's mastery is evident in every delicate stroke and detail captured in this artwork. The Javillo or antidote caccoon fruit itself is a marvel to behold. Its vibrant colors and intriguing shape make it stand out among other fruits.
