EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning handcoloured stipple engraving captures the beauty and intricacy of two pear varieties, Pyrus communis: Winter Swan's Egg and Easter Bergamot. Illustrated by George Brookshaw in his own ""Pomona Britannica"" in 1817, this print is a testament to his talent as both a cabinet maker and a flower painter.
Brookshaw's meticulous attention to detail is evident in the delicate shading and vibrant colors of these pears, making them appear almost lifelike. The Winter Swan's Egg pear with its elongated shape and pale yellow skin contrasts beautifully with the rounder, red-blushed Easter Bergamot pear.
Originally published as part of a larger folio edition from 1804-1812, this quarto edition allows viewers to appreciate Brookshaw's work on a smaller scale without sacrificing any of its charm. His ability to capture the essence of each fruit with such precision is truly remarkable.
As you admire this exquisite print, take a moment to imagine yourself walking through an orchard filled with these luscious pears hanging from the branches. Let their beauty inspire you and bring a touch of elegance to your home decor.
