EDITORS COMMENTS
This exquisite chromolithograph print, titled 'Apple, American Mother variety' or 'Malus domestica American Mother,' is an elegant representation of one of the many apple varieties documented during the late 19th century. The illustration was drawn by J.L. Macfarlane and chromolithographed by Stroobant in Ghent, Belgium. It is part of the extensive collection of fruit and flower plates published in 'The Florist and Pomologist,' a renowned horticultural periodical edited by Robert Hogg in London between 1878 and 1884. The American Mother apple variety, as depicted in this print, is a testament to the meticulous attention to detail and artistic skill of the time. The vibrant colors and intricate textures of the apple's surface are beautifully rendered, making it a delight for the eyes. The rich red and golden hues, combined with the subtle shading and precise lines, create a lifelike image of the apple. The publication of 'The Florist and Pomologist' was a significant contribution to the field of horticulture during the Victorian era. The work showcased a diverse range of fruit and flower varieties, providing botanical records and offering insights into the cultivation and appreciation of these natural wonders. This Apple, American Mother variety print is a captivating example of the high-quality illustrations produced during this period, making it an invaluable resource for horticulturists, historians, and anyone with an interest in the natural world. The print is one of the 251 hand-coloured and chromolithographic plates produced for 'The Florist and Pomologist.' The plates were drawn by Walter Hood Fitch, Miss E. Regel, and J.L. Macfarlane, and lithographed by G. Severeyns and Stroobant in Belgium. The combination of skilled artists and masterful lithographers resulted in stunning visual representations of the natural world, which continue to captivate and inspire us today.
