The Purple Corinth Grape embodies a captivating botanical enigma: its perfect hermaphrodite flowers invariably produce seedless fruits, a singularity that fascinated 19th-century scholars.
This variety is distinguished by its large, deep green lobed leaves and its small, round berries that ripen to a translucent yellowish hue marbled with softened violet-red.
This plate, extracted from Poiteau and Turpin's famous Traité des Arbres Fruitiers (Treatise on Fruit Trees), combines the precision of scientific drawing with an artistic sensibility characteristic of the golden age of botanical illustration.
