Botanical drawing is a detailed and accurate form of illustration focused on representing plants. It combines scientific observation with artistic skill to depict a plant's structure, including leaves, stems, flowers, and roots, often with precise proportions and clarity. These drawings serve for documentation, study, and identification, emphasizing correct anatomy and features. Botanical illustrations balance artistic expression with scientific accuracy, often used in field guides, research, and educational materials to help people understand and identify different plant species effectively.
