Achras Sapota — Nikolaus Joseph von Jacquin

This eighteenth-century botanical plate presents Achras Sapota through a carefully arranged study of foliage, flowers, fruit, and seed. A slender woody branch carries elongated olive and yellow-green leaves, accompanied by small reddish buds and delicate floral structures.

Below the branch, two reddish-brown fruits are shown separately, their surfaces defined by dense speckled detail. A single dark seed completes the study. Generous cream-colored space surrounds the individual botanical elements, emphasizing their shapes and giving the composition the clear, measured character associated with historical scientific illustration.
