EDITORS COMMENTS
Sea Island Cotton, Gossypium barbadense, as depicted in this stunning color plate by David Blair from the seminal work "Medicinal Plants" by Robert Bentley and Henry Trimen, published in 1880. This exquisite illustration showcases the Sea Island Cotton plant in all its splendor, with its lush green foliage and delicate white flowers. The Sea Island Cotton, also known as Barbados Cotton, is a rare and highly prized variety of cotton that originated in the Caribbean, specifically on the island of Barbados. This cotton was renowned for its exceptional quality, with long, fine fibers that produced luxuriously soft and strong textiles. The plate is part of a comprehensive collection of medicinal plants, featuring 69 color plates spanning from Ranunculaceae to Anacardiaceae. The meticulous attention to detail in the illustration is evident, with the intricate structures of the cotton bolls and the delicate veination of the leaves rendered in exquisite detail. The botanical name, Gossypium barbadense, is inscribed in elegant script at the bottom of the plate, along with the names of the authors and illustrator. This beautiful illustration not only serves as a testament to the aesthetic appeal of the Sea Island Cotton plant but also highlights its historical significance as a valuable commodity and medicinal resource. The medicinal properties of the cotton plant were explored in the broader context of the work, reflecting the interconnectedness of botany, medicine, and commerce during the late 19th century.
