A richly detailed 1923 botanical illustration of a mango by H. L. Steadman, created for USDA agricultural study. Featuring both whole fruit and a cross-section view, this historic plate highlights the vibrant coloration, fibrous interior, and natural structure of the mango, blending scientific precision with bold, vintage kitchen appeal.


















This artwork features a botanical illustration of a mango, presented in both its full exterior form and a cross-section that reveals the fruit’s fibrous interior and large central seed. The composition emphasizes the smooth gradient of color across the skin, transitioning from deep red to warm yellow, while also capturing the internal texture and structure of the fruit.
Created in 1923 by H. L. Steadman, this piece reflects the continuation of early 20th-century scientific illustration used to document and preserve fruit varieties for agricultural study. As with other botanical plates from this period, the artwork was produced before the widespread use of color photography, requiring precise observation and careful rendering to accurately capture the defining characteristics of the specimen.
The clean background and subtle handwritten signature enhance the archival quality of the piece, giving it the appearance of a preserved scientific record. The contrast between the vibrant outer tones and the softer interior hues creates a visually striking composition that feels both informative and decorative.
Perfect for kitchens, dining rooms, cafés, and farmhouse-inspired interiors, this poster introduces a sense of warmth, color, and tropical character into the space. Whether displayed individually or as part of a curated gallery from the Vintage Kitchen Botanical Collection, it contributes to a cohesive and timeless environment rooted in botanical tradition and culinary exploration.
