An open page from an antique botanical book, featuring detailed illustrations and descriptions of citrus fruits. On the right-hand page, a vibrant, hand-coloured engraving depicts a branch of a citrus tree with green leaves, a yellow citrus fruit (likely a citron), a cross-section of the fruit, and a flowering branch. The left-hand page contains dense, historical Latin and German text in a Gothic typeface, providing a natural history and explanation of the citrus plant. The book’s aged paper and worn edges suggest it is a historical or rare volume. The bottom of the image credits Georg W. Knorr.
