Quince — Antique Botanical Print

Quince · Cydonia oblonga

A restored antique botanical plate, captioned with its history:

The ‘golden apple’ of myth was likely quince — too hard to eat raw, yet perfumed enough to scent a room.

Botanical illustration of a quince branch, pale pink blossom and a downy golden pear-shaped fruit.
