EDITORS COMMENTS
Plate 19 from Pomona Londinensis (1818) showcases a stunning illustration of the Colmart Pear (Pyrus sp.), a variety of edible pear belonging to the Rosaceae family. This illustration, created by the renowned botanist and illustrator, William Hooker, is held in the esteemed Botany Library at the Natural History Museum in London. The Colmart Pear, also known as the Green Pear, is depicted in all its glory, highlighting its juicy and succulent green fruit. The pear tree, an angiosperm and dicot, is a flowering plant that falls under the order Rosales, and is a member of the Rosid clade within the Eurosid subclass of the eudicotyledonous group, Fabaceae. The plant is further classified under the genus Pyrus and the family Rosaceae. The illustration captures the intricate details of the pear's flower, leaves, and fruit, providing an accurate representation of its morphology. The Colmart Pear was first documented between 1779 and 1832, and this illustration serves as a testament to the botanical knowledge of the time. William Hooker, the illustrator, was a prominent figure in the field of botany during the 19th century. His meticulous attention to detail and commitment to accuracy are evident in this illustration. The Colmart Pear, with its elegant form and delectable fruit, continues to be a popular fruit variety, cherished for its unique taste and texture. This illustration not only serves as a beautiful work of art but also as an important historical record of a beloved fruit.
