EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning chromolithograph depicts three poisonous mushroom species: Amanita pantherina, Amanita franchetii, and Amanita aspera, also known as the Panther Cap mushrooms. The image, created by A. Bessin and printed by Lassus, was originally published in Leon Rolland's seminal mycological guide, "Atlas des Champignons," published by Paul Klincksieck in Paris in 1910. The intricate details of the mushrooms' caps and gills are beautifully rendered in this vibrant and colorful print. The Panther Cap mushrooms, Amanita pantherina, Amanita franchetii, and Amanita aspera, are part of the Amanita genus, which is known for its diverse and often poisonous members. These mushrooms are easily mistaken for edible species due to their visually appealing caps, which can range from brown to reddish-brown with white warts or scales. However, all three species are highly toxic and can cause severe gastrointestinal symptoms and even death if ingested. Mycology, the study of fungi, has long been a source of fascination for scientists and naturalists alike. This chromolithograph is a testament to the beauty and complexity of these often misunderstood organisms. It serves as a reminder of the importance of proper identification and caution when foraging for wild mushrooms. This historic print is not only a beautiful work of art but also an essential resource for mycologists and anyone interested in the natural world. It provides a glimpse into the past, showcasing the meticulous attention to detail and scientific accuracy that defined early mycological research.
