EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning handcoloured steel engraving, titled "Nuts with Shells, Fruits en chaton," showcases an exquisite array of various nuts and their accompanying shells. The illustration, created by Edouard Maubert and masterfully engraved by Lebrun, is a beautiful example of the intricate detail and artistry found in the botanical works of the late 19th century. The illustration features an assortment of nuts, each identified by its label in the lower left corner. The first nut, labeled "Filbert," is the Corylus maxima, or the common filbert or hazel-nut tree. The second and sixth nuts are chestnuts, Castanea sativa, with their distinctive spiky shells. The third nut is the hazelnut, Corylus avellana, a smaller, more rounded nut than its filbert cousin. The fourth nut is an almond, Prunus amygdalus, with its smooth, hard shell and characteristic oval shape. The fifth, seventh, and eighth nuts are walnuts, Juglans regia, with their large, hard, and intricately ridged shells. This engraving is a testament to the beauty and diversity of nature, providing a glimpse into the botanical world of the past. The intricate detail and vibrant colors bring these nuts to life, making this a captivating and educational piece for any botanical or nut enthusiast's collection.
