This is a detailed, vertical botanical illustration, likely a watercolor or print, depicting an orchid species against a plain, light off-white background. The primary subject is a multi-stemmed plant with several broad, elongated leaves, rendered in a desaturated bluish-grey, originating from the lower left. A central stem rises vertically, bearing multiple flowers. The majority of the flowers are a desaturated reddish-brown or maroon, characterized by their distinct petals, while one prominent bloom on the mid-left side is depicted in a lighter shade, possibly white or pale pink, with subtle reddish accents. In the lower right quadrant, two smaller, monochrome grey illustrations detail specific plant parts: an elongated, pointed structure, possibly a developing seed pod or bud, and two smaller, curved anatomical elements. The illustration is presented in a scientific, precise manner, devoid of any discernible environment or human presence beyond the artistic rendering. This botanical plate is associated with or part of a collection located in York, United Kingdom.
