Chestnut Burr Illustration - Botanical Drawing of Castanea Fruit #52818 (License: Personal Use)

This finely detailed pen-and-ink illustration depicts a ripe chestnut burr (fruit of the genus Castanea) with its characteristic dense, sharp spines. The husk is shown partially split open, exposing the smooth, rounded nut nestled inside, rendered with careful shading to convey texture and dimension. The style suggests a 19th- or early 20th-century scientific plate, emphasizing anatomical accuracy over artistic flourish.
