A cross-sectioned papaya with orange flesh dominates the left side of this botanical illustration, rendered with meticulous detail and subtle gradation. Tall papaya trees with delicate compound leaves and clustered yellow flowers rise from the center, accompanied by smaller botanical studies on the right, all set against a warm cream ground in the naturalistic style of 19th-century scientific illustration. At home in a study, library, or kitchen celebrating botanical history and natural observation. Made to order by hand at our own Denver facility, it arrives as nine wood panels, each a half-inch thick with a keyhole on the back so it hangs easily. The natural grain shows through the artwork, so no two come out exactly alike.
