Plums with Branch Border, folio 48 (recto), from Florilegium (A Book of Flower Studies)

Cleveland Museum of Art

The image displays a page from a book with a drawing of various fruits and leaves. The page is open to a two-page spread, but only one page is visible. The page has a red border around the edge, with a thin red line inside the border. Inside the border is a drawing of 13 fruits, including plums, pears, and apples. The fruits are drawn in various colors, including purple, red, yellow, and green. There are also several leaves drawn on the page, including some that are attached to the stems of the fruits. At the bottom of the page, there is a drawing of a branch with several green leaves. The page is yellowed and worn, with some tears and creases visible. The background of the image is white, suggesting that the book is being displayed against a plain surface.
