EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning illustration, titled "Fruits de Serre Temperee et Serre Chaude" or "Tropical and Hot House Fruits," is Plate 51 from Volume 12 of the Horticultural Atlas of Le Regne Vegetal, published in 1870. Housed in the esteemed Botany Library at the Natural History Museum in London, this exquisite print showcases a vibrant array of tropical fruits, many of which are monocotyledonous angiosperms, specifically from the family Bromeliaceae. The illustration captures the allure and richness of these exotic fruits, which thrive in warm, greenhouse environments. Among the depicted fruits, the pineapple (Ananas comosus) takes center stage, its iconic spiky exterior and juicy, edible interior a testament to its popularity and desirability. Other fruits featured include the banana, passion fruit, and guava, all of which are also monocots and are known for their succulent, sweet, and often acidic flavors. The intricate details of the illustration reveal the unique structures of each fruit, from the delicate petals of the passion fruit to the intricate patterns of the bromeliad's bracts. The botanical accuracy of the drawing is a testament to the skill of the illustrator and the meticulousness of the scientific process during this period. As a valuable resource for botanical research and education, this illustration offers a glimpse into the rich diversity of tropical fruits and the importance of their study in the late 19th century. Today, it remains an essential reference for botanists, horticulturists, and anyone with a passion for the natural world.
