EDITORS COMMENTS
This chromolithograph, created by Lassus after an illustration by A. Bessin for Leon Rolland's seminal mycological guide from 1910, showcases a delightful array of puffball and earthstar mushrooms. The Spiny Puffball, Lycoperdon echinatum, is depicted at the center with its distinctive spiny exterior, while the Earthballs, Scleroderma citrinum (Scleroderma vulgare), are shown in various stages of maturity, transitioning from their initial spherical form to the later, cracked and powdery appearance. Surrounding these fascinating specimens are the Fringed Earthstar, Geaster fimbriatus, and Tulostoma fimbriatum (Tulostoma granulosum). The Fringed Earthstar boasts a unique, star-shaped cap adorned with delicate fringes, while the Tulostoma species exhibit intricate, granular surfaces. Mycology enthusiasts will appreciate the intricate details and vibrant colors captured in this beautiful work of art. The illustration not only highlights the distinct features of these fascinating fungi but also serves as a testament to the rich history of mycological exploration. This chromolithograph is a must-have for any mushroom enthusiast's collection and a beautiful addition to any scientific or decorative display.
