Mela Pupina - Pupina Apple

by Giorgio Gallesio

Embrace 19th century Italian heritage by incorporating this beautiful botanical print of the “Mela Pupina” (Pupina Apple), which was originally conceived by the well-renowned Italian botanist Giorgio Gallesio.

This botanical art print comes from none other than the celebrated work by Gallesio, the Pomona Italiana (produced from 1817 to 1839) —arguably the best piece of literature that has been written on fruits in Italy. This magnificent piece of artwork depicts an apple branch (Malus appenninensis) covered in abundance with brightly colored apples and leaves.

In true pomology fashion, the artwork is perfectly finished off with the inclusion of a meticulously rendered cross-section of the apple beneath the main branch of the apple tree.

Suitable for modern kitchens, rustic dining rooms, and even vintage galleries alike, this beautiful botanical print is truly bridging the gap between agriculture and interior decoration.
