USDA Pomological Watercolors
The USDA has a lovely collection of watercolors of various kinds of produce, mostly apples, commissioned
in the 30s and 40s.
They are beautiful and interesting.
USDA has published a web app to access
these
files but it is extremly slow and getting full resolution images is a pain.
I wrote a script to download the files and they are hosted here
I'm working on doing something interesting with them.
