EDITORS COMMENTS
Plate 59 from Pomona Britannica, published in 1812, features a stunning illustration of the black Hamburg grape (Vitis sp.) by the renowned English botanical artist, George Brookshaw (1751-1823). Held in the esteemed Botany Library at the Natural History Museum in London, this botanical masterpiece showcases the intricacies of the black Hamburg grape, a variety of the common grape vine (Vitis vinifera subsp. vinifera) in the family Vitaceae. The black Hamburg grape, also known as the black Hamburgh grape, is an edible fruit that belongs to the order Magnoliophyta, class Magnoliopsida, order Rosales, family Vitaceae, and genus Vitis. It is an angiosperm, a type of flowering plant that produces seeds enclosed in an ovary. The black Hamburg grape is a eudicot, a subgroup of dicotyledons, characterized by having two seed leaves (cotyledons) when germinating. The illustration reveals the vine's tendrils, which are used to support the plant as it climbs, and the large, dark-colored grapes that hang in clusters. The grapes are depicted with their characteristic bloom, a fine, velvety layer that protects the fruit from the sun and insects. The vine's leaves are also illustrated, displaying their palmate shape with lobed margins. George Brookshaw was a prolific botanical artist, producing over 600 plates for various publications, including Pomona Britannica. His meticulous attention to detail and exceptional artistic skill are evident in this image of the black Hamburg grape. The illustration not only showcases the beauty of the plant but also serves as an important record of this grape variety in the annals of botanical history.
