EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases Solanum Quercifolium, also known as the deadly nightshade, in all its mysterious beauty. The image is a coloured engraving from the renowned book "L'Antotrofia Ossia La Coltivazione De Fiori" by Antonio Piccioli, published in 1834. The plant's enchanting purple flowers stand out against a backdrop of intricately detailed leaves that bear a striking resemblance to those of the Northern European Oak. This unique characteristic adds an element of intrigue and complexity to this already fascinating species. Solanum Quercifolium has long been associated with danger and poison due to its toxic properties. Its inclusion in this collection highlights both its allure and potential harm. The artist skillfully captures the essence of this notorious plant, emphasizing its delicate yet deadly nature. The Stapleton Collection proudly presents this remarkable piece from Italian School, dating back to the 17th century. It serves as a reminder of our fascination with botanical wonders throughout history. This mesmerizing engraving invites viewers into a world where beauty can be found even in the most dangerous corners of nature. As we gaze upon it, we are reminded that not everything is as it seems – sometimes even within something seemingly innocent lies hidden peril.
