EDITORS COMMENTS
This exquisite hand-colored steel engraving depicts the Honey Locust or Thorny Locust tree, scientifically known as Gleditsia triacanthos. The intricately detailed illustration was created by Edouard Maubert and engraved by Oudet, as part of Pierre Oscar Reveil's comprehensive botanical work, "La Regne Vegetal: Planetes Agricoles et Forestieres," published by L. Guerin in Paris between 1864 and 1871. The Honey Locust tree is a native of North America, specifically the central and eastern United States and south-central Canada. It is characterized by its distinctive thorns, which give it the common name "thorny locust." These trees can grow up to 30 meters tall and have a spreading crown. The tree's leaves are compound, consisting of 13 to 21 leaflets. The tree's most notable feature, however, is the long, curved, and pointed thorns that grow in clusters along the branches. Despite its formidable appearance, the Honey Locust tree is an important source of food for both humans and animals. The tree's seeds, known as "honey pods," are a valuable food source for wildlife, particularly birds and mammals. The tree's sap is also used to produce a sweet syrup, which was traditionally used by indigenous peoples as a sweetener. The wood of the Honey Locust tree is also valued for its durability and is used for various purposes, including fence posts and fuel. This beautiful and informative engraving is a testament to the meticulous work of the botanical illustrators and engravers of the 19th century, who captured the intricacies of the natural world with remarkable accuracy and artistry.
