EDITORS COMMENTS
This exquisite illustration of a Hydrangea sp. hydrangea, taken from Franz Andreas Bauer's Delineation of Exotic Plants Cultivated in the Royal Garden at Kew (1796), offers a captivating glimpse into the world of 18th century botanical exploration. The Hydrangea, a beloved flowering plant in the modern world, is depicted here in all its pink-hued glory. Bauer's meticulous attention to detail is evident in the intricate rendering of the plant's velvety petals, veined leaves, and the delicate buds that promise to unfurl into more blooms. As an angiosperm, or flowering plant, the Hydrangea is a member of the large and diverse group of plants that produce seeds enclosed in an ovary. More specifically, it is a dicot, characterized by the presence of two seed leaves, or cotyledons, when it germinates. The Hydrangea is also an eudicot, a subgroup of dicots that includes the asterids and rosids, and is further classified within the magnoliophyta, or flowering plants. This illustration is a testament to the rich botanical heritage of the Royal Gardens at Kew, which has been a center of plant exploration and research for over 260 years. Bauer's work, along with countless others, has contributed to the vast body of knowledge that exists today about the natural world and the many wonders it holds. The Hydrangea, with its beautiful flowers and fascinating botanical history, continues to captivate and inspire us, as it did the illustrator over two centuries ago.
