Description:
One plant, mostly in the right half of the page.
Two paragraphs, both above mid-page. The first is left- and
right-justified; the second is left-justified, and follows the
plant's profile on the right.
Comments:
Plant appearance: somewhat bizarre, and badly drawn. It seems to have
two types of leaves. The lower ones are too small, badly spaced
and badly proportioned, and in unnatural positions. The upper ones
look like pompons. The root has a strange, ungainly shape (but
that may be the work of the Dark Painter). The stems have uneven
and unnatural thickness.
This drawing is almost certainly an expanded version of plant
f101r1[1,5]. Stolfi suggested that the person who drew this page
thought that the star-shaped things in f101r1[1,5] were flowers,
so he supplied fantasy leaves; and he only noticed the mistake
halfway through the plant.
