Agaric du Panicaut – Antique French Mushroom Plate 693

This antique French mycological illustration presents Agaric du Panicaut, historically identified on the plate as Agaricus eryngii. A series of carefully arranged studies documents the mushroom from multiple perspectives, combining a mature specimen with exposed gills, stem details, a sectional study and spores.

Warm ochre and brown caps contrast elegantly with pale stems and finely rendered gills. Lettered details A–E, the original PL. 693 notation and period French typography preserve the scientific character of the historic plate while giving the composition distinctive decorative appeal.
