About the Item
This remarkable set of twelve pressed botanical specimens, collected in the Rocky Mountains in 1926, transforms scientific study into poetic art. Unlike most herbarium pages—typically reserved for a single bloom—each sheet bursts with a full bouquet of wildflowers, carefully arranged and preserved in all their delicate, high-altitude glory. Even better, every page includes a handwritten key identifying each species, offering a personal, century-old record of one nature lover’s alpine adventure. Originally bound in a field book, we've given these pages new life: each is now floated on a silk backing and framed in a raked walnut frame that lends texture and warmth. The result is a suite of naturalist treasures—romantic, textural, and utterly unique. Perfect hung as a dramatic grid or scattered like pressed petals across a gallery wall. We’ve preserved the original front and back covers of the book as well, to include with the purchase for those who dream of rebinding the collection.
