EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning hand-colored copperplate engraving captures the beauty and intricacy of the Breadfruit tree, known for its unique fruit that resembles bread when cooked. The artist, Christiane Henriette Dorothea Westermayr, expertly depicts the ripe fruit and sections of this fascinating plant in exquisite detail.
The image is part of Friedrich Johann Bertuch's "Bilderbuch fur Kinder" (Picture Book for Children), published in Weimar in 1792. It serves as both a botanical illustration and a work of art, showcasing the natural world in all its glory.
The Breadfruit tree has long been valued for its nutritious fruits, which have sustained communities throughout history. This print not only captures the physical characteristics of the tree but also symbolizes knowledge, sustenance, and the wonders of nature.
