EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning illustration showcases the exquisite beauty of Citrus bergamia, also known as the bergamot orange. Hailing from the Rutaceae family, this eudicotyledonous, flowering plant is a member of the larger order Sapindales and the family Aurantiaceae. The bergamot orange is an essential component of the citrus genus, which is known for producing edible fruits that are juicy and rich in flavor. The illustration captures the tree in all its glory, with its glossy, evergreen leaves and delicate, white flowers. The tree is adorned with small, round fruits, each encased in a thin, yellow rind. The bergamot orange is native to the Mediterranean region, particularly in Southern Italy and the eastern parts of the Mediterranean. The bergamot orange is a unique citrus species, with a distinct aroma and taste that sets it apart from other citrus fruits. Its zest and essential oil are widely used in perfumery and food industries, imparting a refreshing, citrusy, and slightly sweet flavor. The fruit is also rich in essential nutrients, including vitamin C and dietary fiber. The botanical illustration provides a fascinating glimpse into the intricate details of the bergamot orange, from its veined leaves to its delicate flowers and fruit. The illustration is a testament to the beauty and diversity of the plant kingdom and the importance of preserving and documenting the natural world.
