Daphne laureola (laurbær-dafne)

The artist employed a detailed, close-up approach, meticulously outlining leaf edges. The use of dark green, almost glossy leaves, set against a pale background, suggests the strategic application of color to highlight the subject's natural form.

Created in approximately 1654, the artwork is part of the collection at the Museum of Ethnography, though the artist's broader context or the work's historical trajectory is not detailed here.

This piece aligns with historical botanical illustration practices, where detailed, often large-scale renderings of plants were common for study and documentation.
