EDITORS COMMENTS
This exquisite 18th century botanical illustration showcases the majestic Fraxinus excelsior, commonly known as the common ash or European ash. The ash is a prominent member of the Oleaceae family, which also includes olive trees, and is an angiosperm, a type of flowering plant. As a dicot, it belongs to the eudicot clade, characterized by two seed leaves (cotyledons) and complex flowers. The illustration, produced in 1786, is a testament to the meticulous attention to detail and artistic skill of the botanical illustrator of the time. The ash tree is depicted in all its glory, with its distinctive compound leaves, each composed of 5-9 leaflets, arranged oppositely on the stem. The tree's bark is shown to be gray and furrowed, while its branches bear the distinctive samaras, or winged seeds, which are characteristic of the ash species. The ash tree has a rich history, having been used for various purposes throughout the centuries. Its wood has been valued for its strength and flexibility, making it a popular choice for making tools, furniture, and even charcoal for iron smelting. The tree's leaves have been used for medicinal purposes, and its sap has been used for making a type of syrup. This illustration, created during the height of the Enlightenment, reflects the growing interest in the natural world and the desire to document and classify the various species of plants. The artist, Alexander Cozens, was a prominent botanical illustrator of the time, and his work was published in various botanical texts and journals. The illustration is a beautiful example of the botanical art of the late 18th century, and a reminder of the enduring fascination with the natural world that continues to this day.
