"Cactus Triangularis," plate 26 from "Flore des Antilles" Volume 4, is a botanical illustration that forms part of a comprehensive work by François Richard de Tussac, a French botanist known for his extensive study of Caribbean flora. Published between 1808 and 1827, "Flore des Antilles" is a significant contribution to the botanical literature of the early 19th century, documenting the plant life of the West Indies with detailed descriptions and illustrations.

The illustration "Cactus Triangularis" depicts a species of cactus native to the Antilles, characterized by its triangular stems and likely its showy flowers, which are common features of cacti in this region. The work of Tussac is notable for its accuracy and the quality of its botanical plates, which were often hand-colored and drawn from live specimens. Pierre Antoine Poiteau, a French botanist and illustrator, is credited with publishing this volume, suggesting his involvement in either the illustration or dissemination of Tussac's work.

As an important historical document, "Cactus Triangularis" provides insight into the botanical diversity of the Caribbean during the early 19th century and reflects the period's scientific interest in cataloging and classifying the natural world. The illustration serves not only as a scientific record but also as an example of the artistry involved in botanical illustration, a field that requires both scientific knowledge and artistic skill to accurately represent the intricate details of plant species.

The "Flore des Antilles" remains a valuable resource for botanists, historians of science, and art enthusiasts, offering a window into the rich botanical heritage of the Caribbean and the endeavors of early naturalists to understand and document the natural world.
