EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases three exquisite varieties of the plum tree (Prunus domestica), a beloved member of the Rosaceae family and the subfamily Prunus, which also includes cherries, peaches, and apricots. The upper plum is identified as the Precos de Tours, a late-ripening French variety, renowned for its large, dark-blue fruits with a sweet and juicy flavor. To the left, we find the Lawrance Early Plum, a popular early-ripening cultivar with medium-sized, yellow-green fruits that boast a rich, sweet taste. The Orleans plum, located on the right, is a late-ripening variety with large, dark-blue to purple-black fruits, known for their exceptional sweetness and juiciness. This stunning illustration is Plate 11 from George Brookshaw's "Pomona: Or, the Fruit Garden Illustrated," published in 1817. As a significant contribution to botanical literature, Brookshaw's work showcases a diverse range of fruits and their respective plants, providing valuable information on their cultivation and identification. The plum is an angiosperm, a type of flowering plant that produces seeds enclosed in an ovary, and is classified as an eudicot, meaning it has two embryonic seed leaves. The plum tree belongs to the order Rosales, the rose order, and the family Rosaceae, the rose family. It is also a rosid, a subgroup of the roses, and a member of the subfamily Prunus, the plums and their allies. This illustration is a testament to the beauty and diversity of the plum tree and its various cultivars, which have graced European gardens and orchards for centuries. The intricate details of the flowers, leaves, and fruits in this illustration highlight the artistic skill and dedication of George Brookshaw and the importance of botanical illustration in documenting and preserving the natural world.
