EDITORS COMMENTS
This illustration showcases the leaves and fruit of the Artocarpus chaplasha, also known as the chapalish tree, as depicted in the extensive John Fleming botanical collection. Dating back to the Victorian era of the 19th century, this illustration is a testament to the meticulous attention to detail and scientific accuracy that characterized the botanical art of the time. The Artocarpus chaplasha is a member of the Moraceae family, which is part of the larger group of angiosperms, flowering plants that produce seeds enclosed in an ovary. More specifically, it belongs to the eudicots, a large and diverse group of dicotyledonous plants characterized by the presence of two seed leaves (cotyledons) and secondary growth in the form of vascular cambium. The chapalish tree is native to the Indian subcontinent and Southeast Asia, and its leaves are characterized by their large size, with a broad, ovate shape and a glossy, dark green surface. The tree produces large, heart-shaped fruits that grow in clusters, each containing multiple seeds. The fruit is encased in a thick, fibrous rind and is typically green when unripe, turning yellow or orange as it matures. This illustration offers a glimpse into the rich biodiversity of the plant kingdom during the Victorian era, providing a valuable record of the natural world for generations to come. The intricate details of the leaves and fruit are rendered with exquisite precision, showcasing the skill and dedication of the botanical illustrator. Overall, this illustration is a stunning example of the beauty and complexity of the natural world, captured through the lens of 19th century botanical art.
