The Temple of the Flora: American Bog Plants

Thomas Sutherland

Cleveland Museum of Art

The image depicts a botanical illustration of plants. The main plant has a tall, green stem with large leaves that are curled at the ends. Two stems are prominent; one has a white center. Several long, thin leaves extend from the base of the stems. A smaller plant with a round base and a tall, thin stem with small flowers at the top is on the right. A yellow, seed pod-like object lies on the ground to the left. The background features a body of water, and a mountain range under a blue-gray sky. The title at the bottom reads "American Bog-Plants" in cursive.
