Description

The plant drawn in this reproduction of a vintage book illustration is today known as a blood dock, and it can be found in gardens as an ornamental garden plant. Dark red small flowers and red veins on big green leaves easily capture our attention when drawn, too. The original drawing was printed in a Dutch botanical book from the year 1699. Exact in its depiction, the plant is pictured with its roots, commanding over a cultivated landscape. Simple and elegant beige wooden frame adds to its presentation, making it a good choice for a wall décor in a traditional, rustic or farmhouse interior.
