EDITORS COMMENTS
Plate 916 from the John Reeves Collection of Botanical Drawings from Canton, China, housed in the Botany Library at the Natural History Museum in London, showcases an exquisite illustration of a palm tree from the 19th century. The plate, which is part of a larger collection of botanical drawings created by Reeves during his time in China between 1812 and 1815, provides a detailed and accurate representation of this magnificent plant. John Reeves (1774-1856) was a British botanist and artist, who made significant contributions to the field of botanical illustration during the 19th century. This particular illustration depicts a palm tree from the family Palmae, specifically from the subfamily Arecales, and is most likely a member of the genus Areca or the family Arecaceae. The tree is shown in its full glory, with its tall, slender trunk adorned with rings, and its large, feathery leaves cascading down from the crown. The illustration is a testament to Reeves' exceptional skill as an artist and his meticulous attention to detail. The drawing is executed in green hues, capturing the vibrant colors of the palm tree's leaves and trunk. The intricate details of the tree's flowers, fruits, and seeds are also depicted with great accuracy, making this illustration an invaluable resource for botanical research. The plate is an excellent example of the Angiospermae, or flowering plants, which are a diverse group of plants that include monocotyledons, such as palms, and dicotyledons. The Angiosperms are further classified as Monocotyledonae or Dicotyledonae, based on the number of cotyledons in their seeds. This illustration provides a fascinating glimpse into the rich botanical diversity of Asia during the 19th century and is an essential addition to any collection of botanical art.
