This rare chromolithograph is from Nicolas Gaucher’s ”Gauchers Pomologie”. The work was published in Stuttgart by Jung & Brecht, Buchdruckerei, 1894.
Nicolas Gaucher was a prominent pomologist and botanist during the late 19th century. He dedicated his life to studying and documenting various fruit varieties and their characteristics. Through his work, he compiled an extensive collection of botanical illustrations and descriptions of apple, pear, and plum varieties. Gaucher's work, such as "Gaucher's Pomologie," is an important resource for fruit growers, botanists, and gardening enthusiasts, continuing to be a source of knowledge about the diversity and history of fruit trees.
