Nebbiolo Canavesano - Nebbiolo Grape

by Giorgio Gallesio

The stunning botanical engraving illustrates the beauty and intricacy of the Nebbiolo Canavesano, a historic sub-variety of the legendary Nebbiolo variety found in the mountainous region of Canavese, Piedmont. Derived from the renowned 19th century pomological work Pomona Italiana by Giorgio Gallesio, this print is an epitome of the scientific illustrations done during the Age of Enlightenment era. It accurately illustrates the compact bunch of grapes with dark berries covered in its characteristic bloom and an elaborately illustrated leaf.

Recognized for its beautiful shading and delicate hand coloring, this rare antique print is a must-have in any collector’s collection.
