The red is nearly total, one of the deepest in the whole collection, and Ellen Isham Schutt balances it with the cut half below, cream flesh around a neat star of seeds. She painted this Jonathan on 5 November 1912 from fruit grown at Yakima in Washington State, and the margin notes still name the grower who supplied it. The sheet belongs to the US Department of Agriculture's pomological watercolour programme, the scientific fruit portraiture the department commissioned from 1886 to 1942, and it is preserved in the USDA National Agricultural Library, now in the public domain. Few plates carry this much color; it holds a kitchen or office wall on its own. Printed to order at gallery scale in its own fixed palette.
Printed on 200 gsm enhanced matte art paper using archival pigment inks (giclée process). Framed prints use a classic molded gallery frame in your chosen color finish; the glazing is shatter-resistant acrylic. Made to order for you, in your colors.
