Cleveland Museum of Art

Persian Flowers by Jean Baptiste Pillement, a black and white drawing on beige paper of a curved plant stem with flowers and bulbs. The stem starts at the bottom center and curves upward and to the right, with smaller stems branching off to the left and right. The stem has small leaves and flowers along its length. There are several bulbous flowers or seed pods along the stem, some of which have small leaves or stems attached. The paper is rough and textured, with visible fibers. The edges of the paper are rough and torn.
