EDITORS COMMENTS
Plate 648 from the Fleming Indian Drawings Collection, depicting the exquisite flower of Garcinia mangostana, or mangosteen, is a captivating testament to the botanical wonders of the nineteenth century. This botanical illustration, created between 1795 and 1805, is held in the esteemed Botany Library at the Natural History Museum in London. The image showcases the delicate pink bloom of this tropical evergreen tree, which is a member of the Clusiaceae family, order Malpighiales, and class Eudicot. Mangosteen, a popular and juicy fruit, is native to Southeast Asia and is known for its unique, sweet taste and aroma. The tree is an angiosperm, a type of flowering plant that produces seeds enclosed in an ovary. This particular drawing highlights the intricate details of the mangosteen's flower, revealing the complex structure of its stamens and pistils. The Fleming Indian Drawings Collection, named after Dr. John Fleming, a renowned Scottish botanist and surgeon, is a significant resource for botanical research. Dr. Fleming's extensive travels throughout India and his dedication to documenting the diverse flora of the region resulted in this remarkable collection of botanical illustrations. The mangosteen flower is a beautiful example of the fabidae, a group of eudicots that includes many important food crops. The vibrant pink hue of the petals contrasts elegantly with the darker green color of the branch, making for a visually striking image. The intricacy of the flower's structure, as depicted in this drawing, is a reminder of the complex beauty found in nature and the importance of documenting it for future generations.
