Chrysobalanus Icaco — Nikolaus Joseph von Jacquin

This eighteenth-century botanical plate presents Chrysobalanus Icaco through a restrained study of foliage, flowers, and fruit. A slender reddish-brown stem carries broad oval leaves in muted golden-olive tones, each articulated by a clear network of pale branching veins.

Delicate pale flowers and buds emerge near the top of the specimen, while rounded fruits appear at different stages of maturity. Warm golden examples sit among the upper foliage and a deeper reddish-purple fruit introduces a distinctive point of color below. Generous cream space surrounds the plant, emphasizing its orderly structure and carefully observed botanical details.
