EDITORS COMMENTS
Quercus suber, commonly known as the Cork Oak, is depicted in this stunning watercolor illustration from Volume 16 of "Le Regne Vegetal," published in 1871. The artist meticulously captured the intricacies of this magnificent tree, a member of the Fagaceae family and the genus Quercus. At the heart of this illustration lies the tree's distinctive bark, which is the source of commercial cork. The outer bark is shed periodically, allowing new layers to form beneath, making the tree an invaluable resource for the production of cork stoppers and other cork products. The tree's leaves, arranged alternately on the stem, are simple, oblong, and serrated, characteristic of the Quercus genus. The tree's flowers, small and unassuming, are shown in the foreground, with both male and female flowers present. The male flowers are arranged in catkins, while the female flowers are solitary and have a distinctive, cup-shaped structure. The Cork Oak is a deciduous tree native to the western Mediterranean region, specifically in Portugal, Spain, and North Africa. It is an eudicot, angiosperm, and a member of the Rosid clade. The tree's seeds, enclosed in acorns, are not shown in this illustration but are an essential part of its life cycle. This beautiful watercolor painting, created by an unknown artist, offers a glimpse into the natural beauty and complexity of the Cork Oak tree. Its intricate details and vibrant colors serve as a testament to the artistry and scientific precision of the time. The Cork Oak remains an important tree not only for its commercial value but also for the ecosystems it supports and the beauty it brings to the landscape.
