THE DISSECTION — (opening it to understand it:1.3) a single peony in full blow — cut apart and arranged as a pressed and dried herbarium sheet — on a drained watercolor wash ground. (Numbered dissection plate, each part labelled, clinical and beautiful). a scale-barred scientific plate view, the plate number set top-right. BREAK a corner of a second sheet intruding of the cut stem; paper fiber visible at the deckle, a fold pressed into the sheet of the sheet; a ladybird on the calyx, a caterpillar drawn at true scale not invited. a faint ghost of a prior sketch the intact specimen for reference. a tiny arrow to a feature, a page in a bound volume, a loose seed in the corner, a number in red, part of a series, a marginal sketch of a detail BREAK the glint of a pressed leaf's wax, the faint gleam of varnish on an old plate, a glossy berry lit bright the sap's shine. (flower dissection, botanical diagram, scientific:1.2) copperplate engraving, hand-colored with restraint.
