Description
This exquisite botanical plate from Franz Eugen Köhler's landmark reference work 'Köhler's Medizinal-Pflanzen' (1887–1898) presents Citrus vulgaris — the bitter or Seville orange — in meticulous scientific detail, featuring a flowering branch with lustrous dark-green leaves and white blossoms alongside cross-sectional studies of fruit, seeds, and flower anatomy. The composition balances artistic elegance with scientific precision, set against a warm cream background that evokes classical 19th-century botanical illustration. Köhler's encyclopedia, published in Gera, Germany, was one of the most comprehensive illustrated guides to medicinal plants of its era, prized by botanists and physicians alike.
