EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning chromolithograph print, created by Pieter de Pannemaeker from Jean Linden's Illustration Horticole in Brussels in 1896, showcases two exquisite English plum varieties: Prince of Wales and Rivers Early Transparent Gage. The intricately detailed illustration highlights the unique characteristics of each plum, capturing their allure and beauty. The Prince of Wales plum, depicted on the left, boasts a deep purple-red skin with a golden-yellow flesh. Its attractive appearance and rich, sweet flavor have made it a popular choice among plum enthusiasts for generations. On the right, the Rivers Early Transparent Gage plum is illustrated with its distinctive yellow-green skin that turns amber when ripe, and its translucent, golden-yellow flesh. This plum variety is renowned for its early ripening and exceptional taste, which is a delightful blend of sweet and tart flavors. The botanical illustration provides a captivating glimpse into the world of English plums during the late 19th century. Chromolithography, a popular method for producing color prints during this time, allowed for vibrant and detailed reproductions of botanical specimens. Pieter de Pannemaeker's skillful use of this technique brings the plums to life, showcasing their unique features and captivating the viewer's attention. This print is a testament to the rich history of plum cultivation and the dedication of horticulturists and botanical illustrators who documented and celebrated the beauty and diversity of these fascinating fruits.
