EDITORS COMMENTS
This handcolored copperplate engraving showcases the exquisite beauty of a Bitter orange or Seville orange, scientifically known as Citrus aurantium. The print is derived from G. T. Wilhelm's renowned "Unterhaltungen aus der Naturgeschichte" (Encyclopedia of Natural History), published in Augsburg in 1820. Gottlieb Tobias Wilhelm, a distinguished Bavarian clergyman and naturalist based in Augsburg, authored this remarkable encyclopedia that became an invaluable resource for nature enthusiasts. This particular edition was printed posthumously in 1813 and features meticulously engraved illustrations like the one captured here. The image depicts the intricate details of the Bitter orange tree, showcasing its botanical characteristics with utmost precision. From its vibrant foliage to delicate blossoms, every element has been etched with great care and artistry. The artist's skilled handcoloring technique further enhances the visual appeal by adding subtle hues that breathe life into the print. Beyond its aesthetic allure, this engraving also serves as a valuable reference for those interested in citrus fruits' history and uses. The Bitter orange is widely recognized for its tangy juice, aromatic zest, and fragrant marmalade made from its pulp. Its seeds are often used to extract essential oils or grow new trees. Alamy presents this stunning artwork as part of their extensive collection celebrating historical engravings and illustrations from various sources worldwide. While it does not pertain to any specific commercial use or company promotion, it offers viewers an opportunity to appreciate both nature's wonders and human artistic endeavors through time.
