EDITORS COMMENTS
This exquisite watercolour painting depicts the Pseudopanax arboreus, also known as the five finger or puahou tree, which was illustrated during Captain James Cook's historic first voyage across the Pacific Ocean from 1768 to 1771. The illustration was created by the skilled hand of Fred Polydore Nodder, using an original outline drawing by Sydney Parkinson. The five finger tree is a native to New Zealand and Australia, and is a member of the Araliaceae family, which is part of the larger group of Angiosperms, flowering plants that produce seeds enclosed in an ovary. This particular tree is classified as a dicot, meaning it has two seed leaves or cotyledons, and is further categorized as an eudicot, asterid, and a member of the Apiales order. The painting captures the intricate details of the tree's five-finger like leaves, which are arranged in a decussate pattern, meaning they grow in pairs opposite each other around the stem. The tree's small, white flowers can be seen in the painting, blooming in clusters at the ends of the branches. This beautiful illustration provides a glimpse into the natural world discovered during Cook's voyage, and serves as a reminder of the significant role that exploration and scientific discovery played in expanding our understanding of the natural world during the 18th century. The painting is a testament to the artistic and scientific achievements of the time, and continues to be a valuable resource for botanical research and appreciation today.
