EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning illustration showcases the elegant and intricate details of the field maple, Acer campestre, a beloved member of the Sapindaceae family and the Sapindales order within the Angiosperms. As a part of the magnoliophyta kingdom, this eudicot flowering plant is a vital component of the Eurosid clade and the Rosid subclass, specifically the Malvidae family. The field maple, also known as the common maple or English maple, is native to Europe, North Africa, and western Asia. Its leaves, as depicted in this illustration, are distinctive for their palmate shape, with five lobes radiating from a central point. Each lobe is further divided into smaller lobes or teeth, contributing to the complex and textured appearance of the leaf. The field maple is an essential tree in various ecosystems, providing shade, shelter, and food for numerous organisms. Its leaves turn vibrant shades of red, orange, and yellow in the autumn, making it a popular sight during the fall season. This illustration is a beautiful representation of the botanical world and serves as a reminder of the intricate and diverse structures found within the natural world. The Plate Collection of the Botany Library at the Natural History Museum in London houses an extensive collection of such illustrations, preserving the rich history of botanical discovery and documentation.
