EDITORS COMMENTS
This antique illustration takes us back to the 19th century, showcasing the fascinating Ecballium elaterium, commonly known as the squirting cucumber or exploding cucumber. The retro-styled print captures a single flower of this unique plant in exquisite detail, painted with delicate brushstrokes and intricate sketching. The image portrays a sense of timelessness, evoking nostalgia for classical artistry. This obsolete engraved image serves as a testament to the rich history of botany and herbal medicine. With its isolated presentation on a white background, every aspect of this botanical wonder is highlighted - from its leafy branches to its seeds and fruits. The squirting cucumber's peculiar name stems from its extraordinary ability to disperse seeds by forcefully ejecting them when ripe. This natural phenomenon adds an element of intrigue to an already captivating subject matter. As we admire this beautifully crafted drawing art product, we are reminded of the importance of preserving our natural world through scientific exploration and artistic representation. Nastasic's printout not only celebrates the beauty found in nature but also pays homage to centuries-old traditions in botanics. Whether displayed in a gallery or cherished within one's personal collection, this antique illustration invites us into a realm where science meets art – where plants become masterpieces worthy of admiration and contemplation.
