19th c. hand-painted Victorian botanical illustration of Maize, Buck-wheat, Long Pepper, Black Pepper & Clove plants. Spice plants. See notes.


Plate 2: (6) Maize / Zea mays (7) Buck-wheat / Fagopyrum esculentum (8) Long Pepper / Piper chaba (9) Black Pepper / Piper nigrum (10) Clove Plant / Syzygium aromaticum - Sourced from Popular Economic Botany by Thomas Croxen Archer. Pub. Reeve & Co., London. 1858. So no longer in copyright. - Pages of book are foxed (tinted yellow-orange with age) so some desaturation has been applied and levels boosted to lighten. Patina /texture of page and paper fibre still exists should you want this rather than pure white b/ground. Bad paper stains and some printing ink blobs have been removed though there are some very minor paper flecks embedded here and there.
