SPECIMEN 001: The Last Camellia

One photograph. An entire reconstruction.

Two thousand years from now, camellias are extinct. In a white laboratory, you are given the only surviving photograph. Print a model, examine its petals, dissect its anatomy and collect its data.

But how much of this camellia did you actually observe?
