Phytographia Curiosa: Sumach Arbor

Abraham Munting

Cleveland Museum of Art

The image depicts a plant with a tall, dark red, cylindrical flower or seed cluster. The plant has a single, thin trunk and many long, thin, pointed leaves that are dark green on top and lighter underneath. Two green ribbons extend from near the base of the plant. One ribbon reads "Sumach" and the other "Arbor." The background shows a landscape with trees, bushes, and a distant building or buildings on a hill. The image is on a beige background that resembles aged paper.
