EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning chromolithograph depicts two distinct yet closely related mushroom species: the Shaggy Inkcap, Coprinus comatus, and the Mica Cap, Coprinellus micaceus. Dating back to 1891, this image is taken from Leon Dufour's Atlas des Champignons Comestibles et Veneneux, a seminal work in the history of mycology. The Shaggy Inkcap, also known as the Shaggy Mane or Ink Mushroom, is a common and easily recognizable edible mushroom. It is characterized by its tall, white, shaggy cap, which turns black and inky when bruised or wet. The stem is white and smooth, and it grows in clusters. The Shaggy Inkcap is a popular culinary mushroom in many parts of the world, but it must be cooked before consumption due to the presence of the toxin coprine, which can cause gastrointestinal discomfort when consumed raw. The Mica Cap, or Common Inkcap, is another edible mushroom, closely related to the Shaggy Inkcap. It can be distinguished by its smaller size, lighter cap color, and the presence of mica-like scales on its cap. The Mica Cap also turns black when bruised or wet, but it does not contain coprine, making it safe to eat raw. This exquisite print showcases the intricate details of these fascinating fungi, providing a glimpse into the rich history of mycology and the early efforts to document and classify the vast and diverse world of mushrooms. The use of chromolithography, a printing technique that employs multiple layers of color, adds to the visual appeal and accuracy of the image. Today, these beautiful and edible mushrooms continue to captivate and inspire mycophiles and nature enthusiasts alike.
