The Blue Passion-flower

Robert John Thornton

Cleveland Museum of Art

The image depicts a botanical illustration of a plant with white flowers and green leaves. The plant has large, white flowers with blue and yellow centers. The flowers have five petals each and are arranged in a cluster on the stem. The leaves are dark green and have pointed tips. There are also some buds on the plant that have not yet bloomed. The background of the image is a dark brown color, and there appears to be a wooden fence or wall behind the plant. The sky is visible through the gaps between the leaves and appears to be blue with white clouds. At the bottom of the image, the text "The Blue Passion Flower" is written in cursive.
