EDITORS COMMENTS
Plate 46 from Le Regne Vegetal, Volume 12, Hort. Atlas (1870), held in the esteemed Botany Library at the Natural History Museum in London, showcases an exquisite illustration of a selection of luscious berry fruits, titled "Fruits en Baies (grangeur naturelle)" or "Natural Berry Fruits." This image invites us to delve into the rich world of edible berries, a diverse and essential category of angiosperms, or flowering plants. The illustration features a vibrant red gooseberry (Ribes uva-crispa), a beloved fruit in the Grossulariaceae family, which is also known as the currant family. This eudicot, or dicotyledon, is a member of the Saxifragales order, part of the larger Angiospermae, or Magnoliophyta, classification. The gooseberry is depicted in all its glory, with its juicy, round berries encased in a green, slightly textured rind. The fruit's red coloration is a result of anthocyanin pigments, which not only add to its visual appeal but also provide numerous health benefits. This illustration, a testament to the meticulous work of the botanical artists of the time, captures the essence of these natural wonders, allowing us to appreciate their beauty and intricacy. The plate serves as a reminder of the rich biodiversity of our planet and the importance of preserving and studying these natural treasures for generations to come.
