The Art of Botanical Illlustration
The Art of Botanical Illustration highlights selections from the University of Delaware's Special Collections which show the development of botanical illustration from early printed books to the present day.

It must portray a plant with the precision and level of detail for it to be recognized and distinguished from another species.
