notes:
Pimento, a member of the genus Capsicum, can refer to a sweet, red pepper, a hot chili pepper, or the dried fruit of the Pimenta dioica plant also known as allspice. These three quite different varieties may be what is illustrated here. All are native to Central America and the Caribbean. Charles de Rochefort was pastor of the French Protestant Church at Rotterdam and resided for several years in the West Indies. Image title from chapter title.
