EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning chromolithograph depicts a collection of exquisite mushrooms, showcasing the Pinkmottle woodwax, Russet scaly Tricholoma, Hygrophorus russetus (previously known as Hygrophorus russula), Tricholoma vaccinum, and Tricholoma albobrunneum. The illustration, created by A. Bessin and published in Leon Rolland's seminal guide to mushrooms from France, Switzerland, and Belgium, Atlas des Champignons, in 1910, offers a captivating glimpse into the mycological wonders of the region. The Pinkmottle woodwax, also known as Tricholoma vaccinum, is a popular edible mushroom with a pinkish tint and a velvety, wax-like appearance. The Russet scaly Tricholoma, or Tricholoma albobrunneum, is another edible species, characterized by its russet-brown cap and scaly stem. Hygrophorus russetus, previously classified as Hygrophorus russula, is a common and widely distributed mushroom with a reddish-brown cap and white gills. The Tricholoma species, including Tricholoma vaccinum and Tricholoma albobrunneum, are known for their distinctive caps and gills, making them easily identifiable in the wild. These mushrooms are a testament to the rich biodiversity of the European forests and the beauty of the natural world. This chromolithograph, produced by Lassus, offers a fascinating glimpse into the past, showcasing the meticulous attention to detail and artistic skill of the illustrator and the publisher. The intricate shading, vibrant colors, and precise depiction of each mushroom's unique features make this a valuable addition to any mycological collection or natural history library.
