Painting Description
"Granadilla fructu Citriformi foliis oblongis Tourn" is a botanical illustration by the renowned German botanical artist Georg Dionysius Ehret (1708–1770). Ehret, who was one of the most influential botanical illustrators of the 18th century, was known for his detailed and accurate depictions of plants, which combined both scientific precision and artistic elegance. This particular work is part of his extensive oeuvre, which contributed significantly to the field of botanical science during the Enlightenment.
The title of the illustration, "Granadilla fructu Citriformi foliis oblongis Tourn," refers to a species of passionflower, specifically the Granadilla with lemon-shaped fruit and oblong leaves. The term "Tourn" in the title likely references the classification by the French botanist Joseph Pitton de Tournefort, whose system of plant classification was widely used at the time.
Ehret's illustration would have been created using watercolor and gouache, mediums in which he excelled, and it would have been intended for publication in one of the many prestigious botanical works of the period. His illustrations were often published in collaboration with leading botanists of his time, such as Carl Linnaeus and Philip Miller, and they played a crucial role in the dissemination of botanical knowledge.
The artwork of Georg Dionysius Ehret is highly valued not only for its aesthetic qualities but also for its scientific importance. His illustrations are still studied and admired today, and they are held in collections of major museums and libraries around the world. "Granadilla fructu Citriformi foliis oblongis Tourn" exemplifies the intersection of art and science in the 18th century and remains a testament to Ehret's skill as a botanical artist.
