EDITORS COMMENTS
This exquisite sketch, titled "Bauhinia divaricata L. bulls hoof" (Sketch 15), is an original drawing by the renowned 18th century botanical artist, Georg Dionysius Ehret (1708-1770). The illustration is part of a larger collection of 66 drawings held in the esteemed Botany Library at the Natural History Museum in London. Bauhinia divaricata, commonly known as the Bull's Hoof Orchid Tree or the Pata de Chivo (Goat's Foot), is a leguminous tree belonging to the Fabaceae or Leguminosae family. This eudicot angiosperm is characterized by its distinctive, orchid-like flowers, which are arranged in dense, flat-topped inflorescences. Ehret's meticulous drawing showcases the intricate details of the Bull's Hoof tree's flowers, revealing their unique structure and beauty. The illustration highlights the individual components of the flower, including the calyx, corolla, and stamens, providing a detailed record of this fascinating plant. As a member of the Rosid clade within the Eurosid subclass, Bauhinia divaricata is an important part of the Magnoliophyta, or flowering plants. Ehret's drawing serves as an invaluable historical record of this plant species, which continues to captivate botanists and nature enthusiasts alike. Georg Dionysius Ehret's artistic skill and dedication to botanical illustration are evident in this stunning sketch. The intricate details and precise shading reveal Ehret's mastery of the medium, making this drawing a true masterpiece of 18th century botanical art.
