THE DYNAMICS OF PANDANUS ILLUSTRATIONS FROM A HISTORICAL PERSPECTIVE
ABSTRACT: Pandanaceae is
placed in the superorder Pandaniflorae and the order Pandanales, indicating its
uniqueness when compared with the other seed plants. Pandanaceae contains three
genera, Pandanus, Sararanga and Freycinetia. Limited collections seem to be one
reason why botanical illustrations are made, so that people can enjoy their
―collections‖ from a picture painted on canvas.
Botanical illustration is one type of record that can also give evidence
about whether the plant exists. In addition, botanical illustration can give
information about the growth of the plant, and historical evidence can be
traced. There is no doubt that Pandanus has also been well illustrated. Later,
further developments in Pandanus research obviously influenced the
illustrations of Pandanus.
