摘 要：
植物科学画（botanical illustration或botanical scientific illustration）是以植物为核心描绘对象，严格遵从实物与标本的真实比例，准确还原和重构其形态特征、解剖结构并用于植物分类、物种鉴定、科学传播的科艺跨界绘画形式。它以科学的精准为基、艺术的优美为魂，是科学与艺术深度交融的结晶。植物科学画历经了萌芽、形成与发展这三个不同时期，并从纯粹的实用记录绘画形式，逐渐蜕变成为集科学与艺术为一体的独立绘画风格。在中国，冯澄如、曾孝濂等先驱，融合中西方绘画技法独辟蹊径地推动了植物科学画的本土化进程。在当代数字和人工智能时代的语境中，植物科学画因具备不可替代的价值，将为科学研究、科学传播、文化传承与艺术熏陶等发挥重要作用，并在坚守多元融合、积极创新的发展中，更好发挥连接科学与艺术、自然与人类的桥梁作用。

Abstract:
Botanical illustration is an interdisciplinary manifestation that bridges science and art. With plants as its core illustrating subject, it precisely captures and reconstructs their morphological characters and anatomical structures, following the true proportions of living organisms and specimens. It serves essential purposes in plant taxonomy, species identification, and scientific communication. Rooted in scientific precision and animated by artistic beauty, it stands as a profound synthesis of science and art. Traversing through stages of germination, formation, and development, botanical illustration has evolved from mere practical documentation into an independent art form that seamlessly unifies scientific and aesthetic pursuits. In China, pioneers such as Feng Chengru and Zeng Xiaolian propelled its indigenous evolution by blending various Chinese and Western unique techniques. Today, in the digital and artificial intelligence era, botanical illustration retains its irreplaceable values. It will continue to play a vital role in advancing scientific research, communication, cultural heritage, and aesthetic enrichment. By embracing interdisciplinary fusion and proactive innovation, botanical illustration will serve even more effectively as a bridge—connecting science and art, as well as nature and humanity.
