EDITORS COMMENTS
Plate 60: Cinnamomum verum, or True Cinnamon, is depicted in this stunning nineteenth-century illustration by Margaret Bushby Lascelles Cockburn. Created in 1829, this beautiful drawing is held at the Natural History Museum in London and showcases the intricate details of this important flowering plant. Belonging to the Lauraceae family, Cinnamomum verum is a small, evergreen tree native to Sri Lanka and South India. The tree is an angiosperm, meaning it produces seeds enclosed in an ovary, and is a dicot, characterized by two seed leaves or cotyledons. The plant is widely known for its fragrant bark, which is used as a popular spice and flavoring agent in various culinary applications. The illustration captures the various aspects of the plant, from its glossy, oval leaves to its small, white flowers and elongated, red-brown fruit. The plant's bark is not visible in this drawing, but it is worth noting that it is the source of the valuable spice. Margaret Bushby Lascelles Cockburn was a prolific botanical illustrator of the Victorian era, producing numerous drawings and plates for various publications and scientific institutions. Her work, like this one, is a testament to the meticulous attention to detail and artistic skill that was required to accurately document the natural world during this period. Cinnamomum verum remains an important commercial crop today, with Sri Lanka being the largest producer. The spice, which is commonly referred to as 'true cinnamon,' is highly valued for its distinct, sweet, and slightly spicy flavor. This illustration serves as a reminder of the rich botanical heritage that continues to inspire and inform our understanding of the natural world.
