EDITORS COMMENTS
This exquisite drawing of Tropaeolum majus, commonly known as the nasturtium, is a stunning representation of this vibrant and beloved flowering plant. Created by the skilled hand of Arthur Harry Church in 1903, this illustration is a testament to the artistic and scientific achievements of the Victorian era. Tropaeolum majus is a member of the Tropaeolaceae family, which is part of the larger order Geraniales, and the class Eudicots. This angiosperm, or flowering plant, is a dicot, meaning it possesses two seed leaves, or cotyledons, upon germination. The plant is native to the Andes region in South America, but has since become naturalized in many parts of the world due to its ornamental value. The name "nasturtium" is derived from the Spanish words "nastur," meaning "nose," and "tierna," meaning "plant," due to the pungent smell of the plant's leaves and flowers. The plant's bright, cheerful flowers come in a range of colors, including red, orange, and yellow, and are often used in salads for their peppery taste. Arthur Harry Church's illustration captures the essence of the nasturtium's beauty and intricacy. The delicate details of the flower's petals, veins, and stamens are rendered with precision and artistry, showcasing the illustrator's keen observation skills and mastery of botanical drawing techniques. The drawing also provides a glimpse into the rich botanical knowledge of the Victorian era, a time when the study and documentation of the natural world was a source of great fascination and discovery. This illustration is held in the esteemed Botany Library at the Natural History Museum in London, where it continues to inspire and educate visitors about the wonders of the plant kingdom.
