EDITORS COMMENTS
This exquisite illustration showcases Erica fascicularis, a captivating member of the Ericaceae family, as depicted in Franz Andreas Bauer's Delineation of Exotic Plants Cultivated in the Royal Garden at Kew from 1796. Bauer, a renowned botanical artist, meticulously captured the essence of this heath plant, which is native to South Africa. The delicate pink flowers, arranged in racemes, bloom profusely, adding a burst of color to the otherwise green foliage. Erica fascicularis, commonly known as the Strawberry Heath, is named for its fruit-like structures that resemble strawberries. This illustration is a testament to the artistic and scientific achievements of the 18th century, when the exploration and documentation of exotic flora was a source of great fascination and discovery. The Natural History Museum's Botany Library in London preserves this precious piece of botanical history, allowing us to appreciate the intricacies of Erica fascicularis and the artistry of Bauer's work.
