From the exhibition

Guettarda uruguensis Cham. & Schltdl.

· Collected before 1888; herbarium sheet prepared 1888

Guettarda uruguensis Cham. & Schltdl.
This is a pressed botanical specimen — a herbarium sheet — not a cartoon or caricature. It shows dried branches of *Guettarda uruguensis* (Rubiaceae), a South American shrub, mounted on archival paper with handwritten identification labels, a color-calibration chart, and a ruler. Stamps indicate it passed through the Missouri Botanical Garden and the Royal Botanic Gardens. No satirical content, printmaking technique, or caricature tradition applies here. The catalog description submitted does not match the image provided. A accurate wall label cannot be written without a correct source image.
