Musa - Ciento en Boca
1904
Step back in time to 1904 with this charming botanical sketch of a 'Ciento en boca' banana bunch, freshly observed in Mexico City. Artist Elsie E. Lower meticulously captured the speckled yellow skins and sturdy stems, likely creating this record for scientific study given the official catalog number scribbled at the bottom left. It serves as a delicious slice of agricultural history, preserving the exact look of this specific fruit variety over a century ago.
