EDITORS COMMENTS
Plate 1, titled "A Group from Burlgaar," is a stunning 19th century illustration by Margaret Bushby Lascelles Cockburn, held at the Natural History Museum in London. This drawing showcases two important commercial crops, Theobroma cacao and Syzygium aromaticum, which have played significant roles in the culinary and medicinal worlds for centuries. Theobroma cacao, commonly known as the cocoa tree or cacao tree, is depicted on the left side of the illustration. Cocoa beans, derived from the ripe pods of this tree, are the source of cocoa butter and cocoa solids, essential ingredients in making chocolate. The cocoa tree is an evergreen angiosperm, belonging to the Malvaceae family, order Malvales, and class Eudicot. Its large, oblong pods are filled with sweet, edible seeds that are fermented, dried, and roasted to produce the beloved treat. On the right side of the illustration, Syzygium aromaticum, or cloves, is depicted in full bloom. This flowering plant is a member of the Myristicaceae family, order Magnoliales, and class Magnoliidae. Cloves are the dried flower buds of this tree, which are used extensively in cooking for their distinct aroma and flavor. The clove tree is native to the Moluccas in Indonesia and other tropical regions, and its buds are harvested before they fully bloom to ensure the best quality. This beautiful illustration, created between 1829 and 1928, showcases the intricate details of these two important plants, highlighting their unique structures and features. The careful attention to detail and the use of naturalistic colors make this a truly captivating work of art, providing a glimpse into the rich botanical diversity of the past.
