EDITORS COMMENTS
Plate 43 from Pomona Londinensis (1818) showcases an exquisite illustration of the Pyrus sp. apple variety known as Fearn's Pippin. This stunning apple, depicted in intricate detail, was captured by the renowned botanical artist and explorer, William Hooker. The illustration holds pride of place in the Botany Library at the Natural History Museum in London. The Fearn's Pippin apple is a beautiful example of the Rosaceae family, specifically the genus Pyrus, which includes both apples and pears. This apple is distinguished by its vibrant red and green coloration, with a hint of yellow at the base. The fruit's texture is suggested by the delicate shading and fine lines, giving an almost three-dimensional effect. The apple tree, an angiosperm, is a flowering plant that belongs to the eudicot clade, Eudicotyledons, and the order Rosales. This particular apple variety was first documented between 1779 and 1832. The illustration is a testament to the rich botanical knowledge of the 19th century, a time when the study of plants was a source of great fascination and discovery. The Fearn's Pippin apple is not only a work of art but also an edible treasure. Apples, like this one, have been a staple food source for centuries, providing essential nutrients and delighting people with their diverse flavors and textures. The apple's intricate structure, as depicted in this illustration, is a reminder of the complex biology that underpins the simple pleasure of enjoying a fresh apple. This illustration is a valuable historical record of the natural world, offering a glimpse into the past while reminding us of the ongoing importance of botanical exploration and documentation.
