Carnet Palm Antique Tropical Fruit Botanical Art

Tropical Antique Palm Trees - This beautiful botanical print from the early 1800s, published in a book then by Blackie & Son, Glasgow, Edinburgh & London. The botanical print showcases tropical fruit that was known back then -- it has four fruits- a Jack fruit, both immature and mature variations, Pandanus with the fruit bearing leaf, Date Palm - both the tree itself and with a detail of the date palm fruit and flowering head, and a Banana tree -- both the full banana tree with bananas and their flower, and an insert of the bananna fruit. The top says "Plants Used as Food".
