EDITORS COMMENTS
Captured during the historic voyage of H.M.S. Challenger (1872-1876), this photograph presents an enchanting scene of cabbages growing on the rocky soil of Kerguelen Island. Funded by the British Government for scientific purposes, the expedition is believed to be the first to carry an official photographer, documenting the diverse flora and fauna of the world's oceans and distant lands. The Brassicaceae family, to which cabbages belong, is an essential part of the Cruciferae order, also known as the cruciferous vegetables. The cabbage depicted in this image is most likely Brassica oleracea, a widely cultivated and versatile vegetable. As a member of the Eudicotyledons, or Rosids, this flowering plant is part of the Angiospermae, a large group of seed-bearing plants that includes over 90% of all living plant species. The photograph captures the cabbages in their natural habitat, outside on the daytime of Kerguelen Island. The island, part of the French Southern and Antarctic Lands, is known for its unique and diverse plant life, which thrives in the harsh, sub-Antarctic climate. The cabbages, with their distinctive crinkled leaves and compact heads, stand out against the rugged, volcanic landscape, showcasing the resilience and adaptability of these edible plants. This photograph is a testament to the groundbreaking work of the H.M.S. Challenger expedition, which revolutionized the scientific understanding of the natural world. The image offers a glimpse into the past, providing valuable insights into the history of botanical exploration and the wonders of the plant kingdom.
