EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning watercolour painting depicts Euphorbia glauca, commonly known as sea spurge, an intriguing member of the Euphorbiaceae family, which was meticulously illustrated during Captain James Cook's historic first voyage across the Pacific Ocean from 1768 to 1771. The original outline drawing was created by Sydney Parkinson, an accomplished artist and naturalist aboard the HMS Endeavour. The finished watercolour was later completed by Fred Polydore Nodder, a renowned botanical artist of the 18th century. Euphorbia glauca is a flowering plant native to New Zealand and Australasia, belonging to the Malpighiales order, Eudicots, and Angiosperms. Its distinctive features include the unique milky sap, which gives the plant its common name, and the alternating leaves with a waxy, blue-green surface. The plant produces small, greenish-yellow flowers in clusters, adding to its allure. The Euphorbiaceae family, also known as the spurge family, includes over 7,500 known species, many of which are found in tropical and subtropical regions. Euphorbia glauca is not to be confused with Euphorbia paralias, commonly known as the Devil's Backbone or Milkweed, which is a different species within the same family. This illustration offers a window into the natural history of the Pacific region during the Age of Discovery, showcasing the intricate details of a beautiful and intriguing flowering plant. The collaboration between Parkinson and Nodder highlights the importance of scientific exploration and the documentation of new discoveries during this era.
