EDITORS COMMENTS
This exquisite illustration is taken from Pomona Franconica, a horticultural publication created between 1776 and 1801 by the renowned German botanical artist, Johann Mayer of Wurzburg. The illustration is titled "Grosse cerise blanche," which translates to "Large White Cherry" in English. The image showcases the stunning beauty of this Prunus sp. (Cherry) species in both its flowering and fruiting stages. The Prunus sp. depicted in this illustration is a member of the Rosaceae family, which is an order of flowering plants that also includes roses, apples, and pears. This particular species is a eudicot, meaning it is a type of flowering plant that possesses two embryonic seed leaves, or cotyledons, when it germinates. The Prunus sp. is also an angiosperm, a type of seed plant that produces enclosed seeds, and a dicot, meaning it has two seed leaves, or cotyledons, when it germinates. The illustration captures the long, large, white flowers of the cherry tree in full bloom, surrounded by buds that are just beginning to open. The leaves of the tree are depicted as simple, ovate, and serrated, with a glossy, green appearance. The illustration also reveals the characteristic, round, and bright red cherries that grow in clusters on the tree. Johann Mayer's meticulous attention to detail is evident in the way he has captured the intricacies of the cherry tree's structure, from the veins on the leaves to the delicate petals of the flowers. This illustration is a testament to the beauty and complexity of the natural world and serves as a reminder of the importance of preserving and documenting the natural world for future generations.
