EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning watercolour painting, titled "Senecio candidans" or sea cabbage, was created by the Scottish artist Sydney Parkinson during Captain James Cook's historic first voyage across the Pacific Ocean, between 1768 and 1771. The illustration, annotated as "Cacalia lanuginosa," showcases the intricate details of this fascinating plant, which is now known to be a member of the Brassicaceae, Asteraceae, and Compositae families, collectively known as the crucifers, sunflower family, and composite family, respectively. The painting, which is believed to be a finished work, depicts the plant in its natural habitat, with its delicate white flowers and fleshy, succulent leaves. At the time, the plant was not yet fully understood, and Parkinson's meticulous illustration played a crucial role in advancing scientific knowledge of the Pacific flora. The painting is a testament to the rich biodiversity of the Pacific region, which Cook and his crew explored during their groundbreaking journey. The plant, which is also known as groundsel, cabbage, or sea-cabbage, is a flowering plant that belongs to the eudicot clade, angiosperms, and magnoliophyta. It is an angiosperm, meaning it produces seeds enclosed in an ovary, and a dicot, meaning it has two cotyledons or seed leaves. The painting is a valuable historical record of the natural world, and it continues to captivate scientists, artists, and collectors alike. Its intricate details and vibrant colors bring the beauty and complexity of the natural world to life, offering a glimpse into the past and a reminder of the ongoing importance of scientific exploration and discovery.
