This illustration celebrates the Early Apricot, an emblematic variety of Parisian early produce, espalier-trained against the sunny walls of Montreuil as early as the 18th century.
Poiteau precisely captures this sought-after small fruit in all its delicacy: its flowers with a punctuated red calyx, its crenelated white petals, and its rounded fruit tinted with luminous yellow and vivid red on the sun-exposed side.
A botanical testament to an era when the race for the first harvests was the pride of Ile-de-France arboriculturists, this plate embodies the savoir-faire and luxury of the orchards of Île-de-France.
