EDITORS COMMENTS
Plate 190 from the John Reeves Collection of Botanical Drawings from Canton, China, showcases the exquisite beauty of Biophytum sensitivum, also known as sikerpud, a rare and intriguing flowering plant from Asia. John Reeves (1774-1856), a British botanical artist and collector, meticulously captured the essence of this delicate angiosperm in his nineteenth-century drawing. The vibrant red flowers of Biophytum sensitivum are nestled among the slender green stems, each adorned with small, heart-shaped leaves. The plant's root system, not visible in this image, is believed to be fibrous and creeping, allowing it to spread and form mats. Angiosperms, or flowering plants, are a diverse group of organisms that make up the vast majority of plant life on Earth. Biophytum sensitivum is a member of the Magnoliophyta division, which includes all flowering plants that produce seeds enclosed in an ovary. This stunning botanical drawing provides a window into the rich biodiversity of China during the 19th century. The intricate details and precise shading reveal the artist's dedication to accurately recording the natural world. The John Reeves Collection, held in the Botany Library at the Natural History Museum in London, is an invaluable resource for researchers and students of botany, offering insights into the historical record of plant species and their artistic representation.
