EDITORS COMMENTS
Plate 911 from the John Reeves Collection of Botanical Drawings from Canton, China, housed in the Botany Library at the Natural History Museum in London, presents a stunning illustration of the Strelitzea sp. Bird of Paradise flower. This exquisite drawing, created in the nineteenth century, showcases the vibrant and intricate details of this magnificent plant. John Reeves (1774-1856), a British merchant and botanical artist, compiled this extensive collection of botanical drawings during his time in China from 1812 to 1833. Reeves' meticulous illustrations of Chinese plants were instrumental in expanding European knowledge of Asian flora during the 19th century. The Bird of Paradise flower, also known as the Crane Flower, is a captivating member of the Palmae family, specifically the Strelitzeaceae. This plant is native to tropical regions of South America and Africa, but it gained popularity in China due to its exotic appeal. The illustration highlights the bird-like shape of the flower, which is reminiscent of the plumage of the bird of paradise, hence its name. The foliage of the Bird of Paradise plant is depicted in rich green tones, adding to the overall vibrancy of the drawing. This monocotyledonous angiosperm, belonging to the monocot class of flowering plants, is characterized by its unique structure and striking beauty. The intricate details of the drawing, such as the veins on the leaves and the delicate petals of the flower, are a testament to Reeves' exceptional artistic skills. This illustration provides a glimpse into the rich botanical heritage of the past and serves as a reminder of the importance of documenting the natural world for future generations.
