Botanical Print: Common & Spanish Hazelnut, Le Jardin Fruitier, 1821

About the Item

Botanical Print: Common & Spanish Hazelnut, Le Jardin Fruitier, 1821 This captivating botanical print features two varieties of hazelnuts: the Common Hazelnut (Noisette franche) and the Spanish Hazelnut (Aveline d’Espagne). The artwork originates from *Le Jardin fruitier* by Louis-Claude Noisette, published in 1821. This esteemed French horticultural publication was known for its thorough exploration of fruit trees and vines across Europe, blending scientific accuracy with artistic refinement. In this plate, the top section illustrates the Common Hazelnut with its familiar green husks and deep green, intricately veined leaves. A single brown nut is shown beside the branch, highlighting the rich, earthy hue of the mature seed. Below, the Spanish Hazelnut is similarly detailed, with its spiky green husk and textured leaves conveying the botanical elegance and structural strength of this variety. Both nuts are depicted with the same precision that characterized the entire series. Louis-Claude Noisette, a prominent horticulturist in early 19th-century France, devoted himself to cataloging and sharing his deep knowledge of European fruit-bearing plants. His work offered not only practical cultivation advice but also a window into the scientific and artistic achievements of the Enlightenment era. The prints from *Le Jardin fruitier* were created with meticulous detail and hand-colored to bring the natural forms to life, serving both as scientific records and as objects of beauty for collectors. The craftsmanship is evident in the fine engraved lines and nuanced color application, capturing the unique textures and organic forms of the hazelnut’s foliage and fruit. The plates from this series remain sought after by collectors of antique prints and botanical illustrations, embodying the intersection of natural beauty and scholarly pursuit. Condition: This antique print is in very good condition with minor age-related toning and light edge wear, contributing to its authentic vintage appeal. Colors remain fresh and vibrant. Framing tips: To showcase this botanical treasure, use a soft cream or light taupe mat and a natural wood or antique gold frame. This will complement the earthy green and brown tones of the print, enhancing its historical and botanical charm.
