Heliotropium salicioides Cham. — Herbarium Type Specimen

This is a pressed botanical herbarium specimen, not a political cartoon or caricature. The sheet mounts two dried plant stems of Heliotropium salicioides collected in Bahia, Brazil by collector Blanchet in 1842, held by the Natural History Museum, London (Department of Botany). A color calibration chart and metric scale bar accompany the specimens for archival photography. The handwritten and printed labels identify it as a syntype. No satirical, caricature, or printmaking tradition is relevant here. Writing a wall label framing this as a political cartoon would misrepresent the object entirely.
