EDITORS COMMENTS
This exquisite illustration is taken from the second volume of "Pomona Franconica," a comprehensive horticultural work published by Johann Mayer of Wurzburg in 1779. Entitled "Griotte de Portugal," this illustration showcases the Portuguese cherry (Prunus spp.), a beautiful flowering plant in the Rosaceae family, which is known for its distinctive red fruits. The Portuguese cherry is an eudicot, a type of angiosperm that is characterized by having two embryonic seed leaves (cotyledons) and flowers with both sepals and petals. This particular species is a member of the Rosales order, which also includes roses, apples, and pears. The plant depicted in the illustration is adorned with delicate, pinkish-white flowers, each featuring a distinctive central tuft of stamens. The Portuguese cherry is a small tree or shrub that typically grows to be around 10-15 feet tall. Its leaves are ovate to elliptical in shape, with a serrated margin. The tree is renowned for its attractive, bright red fruits, which are round to oval in shape and about the size of a cherry. The fruits are not only visually appealing but also rich in nutrients and are often used in culinary applications. This illustration, produced in the 19th century, is a testament to the meticulous attention to detail and artistic skill of Johann Mayer and his team. The intricate rendering of the Portuguese cherry's flowers, leaves, and fruits provides a fascinating glimpse into the natural world of the past and the beauty of the botanical world.
