EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning handcoloured stipple engraving captures the beauty and variety of currants, showcasing three different types: Blackcurrant (Ribes nigrum), Dutch redcurrant (Ribes rubrum), and white currant (Ribes glandulosum). The intricate details and vibrant colors bring these fruits to life, making them appear almost lifelike.
Created by George Brookshaw for his "Pomona Britannica" in 1817, this print is a testament to his talent as both a cabinet maker and a flower painter. Brookshaw's skillful hand is evident in the precision of each leaf and berry, demonstrating his keen eye for botanical accuracy.
The quarto edition of this print was derived from the original folio edition published between 1804-1812, solidifying its place in botanical history. Despite disappearing from the art world in the 1790s, Brookshaw made a triumphant return with his "New Treatise on Flower Painting" in 1797, cementing his legacy as a master of floral illustration.
Whether you have an appreciation for botany or simply enjoy beautiful artwork, this print is sure to captivate your senses and add a touch of elegance to any space. Display it proudly in your home or office as a reminder of nature's bounty and the timeless artistry of George Brookshaw.
