EDITORS COMMENTS
This beautiful chromolithograph print, created by the renowned mycologist and artist Fritz Leuba in 1890, showcases two exquisite edible bolete mushrooms: the Greville Bolete, Suillus grevillei, and the Sticky Bolete, Suillus viscidus. The image is taken from Leuba's seminal work, "Edible and Poisonous Mushrooms," published in Neuchatel, Switzerland. Leuba's meticulous attention to detail is evident in the intricate illustration of these mushrooms, which are depicted against a backdrop of larch trees and bovine skull. The Greville Bolete, also known as the Larch Bolete or the Flavus Bolete, is characterized by its yellowish-orange cap and pores that turn blue when bruised. The Sticky Bolete, on the other hand, is easily identified by its slimy, sticky cap and brown pores. Both of these mushrooms are edible and have been a source of food and sustenance for many cultures throughout history. The Greville Bolete is particularly prized for its rich, earthy flavor and firm texture, making it a popular choice for gourmet dishes. The Sticky Bolete, while not as visually striking as its counterpart, is also a delicious and nutritious addition to any meal. Leuba's work was groundbreaking in the field of mycology, as he was one of the first to use color lithography to accurately depict the various species of mushrooms. His illustrations were not only beautiful works of art but also valuable tools for mycologists and foragers alike. This print is a testament to Leuba's dedication to documenting the natural world and to the enduring beauty and fascination of mushrooms.
