EDITORS COMMENTS
This image, titled "Mangosteen" by Jan Brandes, dates back to 1784, offering a glimpse into the rich botanical heritage of Southeast Asia. The Dutch artist meticulously captured the essence of this exotic Indonesian fruit, showcasing two whole mangosteens and one cut in half. The intricate details of the fruit's unique texture and vibrant purple hue are brought to life through Brandes' skilled use of pencil and watercolor. The drawing is part of Brandes' sketchbook, dl. 1 (1808), page 163, and was likely created during his time in Batavia, now Jakarta, Indonesia. The Javanese mangosteen, a tropical fruit renowned for its sweet and juicy aril-covered segments, was a popular subject for naturalists and botanists of the time. Brandes' precise handwriting in the bottom right corner of the sketch reads, "Mangostanen," further authenticating the identity of the depicted fruit. The inscription also reveals the artist's nationality, as "Jan Brandes" is written in Dutch. This artwork serves as a testament to the 18th-century fascination with the natural world, particularly the exotic fruits of Southeast Asia. The drawing, now part of the Rijksmuseum's extensive collection, invites us to appreciate the beauty and diversity of the natural world, as well as the artistic skill of its European observers.
