EDITORS COMMENTS
This vibrant and captivating print titled "October, from Twelve Months of Fruits" by Robert Furber takes us on a visual journey through the bountiful autumn season. Engraved by Henry Fletcher in 1732, this colour engraving showcases the exquisite talent of Flemish artist Pieter Casteels. The artwork depicts a delightful arrangement of fruits that epitomize the essence of October. A wicker basket overflows with an assortment of luscious peaches, pears, apples, cherries, grapes, and even a pineapple. The contrasting colors between the white and black grapes add depth to the composition while highlighting their succulent appeal. Each fruit seems to have been carefully selected for its representation of this fruitful time of year. The juicy peaches symbolize abundance and sweetness while the pears exude elegance and refinement. Nestled among them are medlars – a lesser-known fruit that adds an element of intrigue to this still life. As we admire this masterpiece from London's Victoria & Albert Museum collection, we can almost taste the crispness in every bite. It serves as a reminder that nature's gifts are ever-changing with each passing month. This print not only captures the beauty found in seasonal produce but also pays homage to our connection with nature's cycles. With its vivid colors and meticulous details, "October" transports us into a world where art intertwines with nature's bounty – inviting us to savor both visually and gastronomically all that autumn has to offer
