About the Item
Antique educational wall chart lithograph - "Hydroza, Hydromedusae, Hydra" by Paul Pfurtscheller for Martinus Nijhoff. Wooden dowel measures 53" in length. Chart measures 50 13/16" x 54".
Paul Pfurtscheller (1855–1927), an Austrian zoologist and biology teacher, produced an iconic series of 38 botanical and zoological wall charts for educational use from 1902 up to the time of his death, just before the completion of his 39th design. Highly regarded by eminent zoologists and botanists of the day, Pfurtscheller originally drew and painted these distinctive wall charts detailing the anatomical structure of animals, plants, and insects to compliment his lessons in the classroom despite having no formal training as artist. The aesthetic splendor of Pfurtscheller’s educational charts have been highly sought after by collectors who appreciate the peculiar genius behind prints of various industrial and institutional origins.

Marine Splendor: Hand-Colored Zoophytes of the 19th Century
Located in Langweer, NL
A collage of two original antique prints from the "Dictionnaire Universel d'Histoire Naturelle," published in 1849.
Description: This exquisite collage presents a selection of marine invertebrates, or zoophytes, from the celebrated "Dictionnaire Universel d'Histoire Naturelle". These detailed illustrations depict the intricate beauty and diversity of coral-like organisms, showcasing the scientific and artistic achievements of the 19th century. The delicate hand-coloring highlights the natural elegance of these sea creatures, making the prints both a scientific document and a piece of art.
The species depicted in the prints from the "Dictionnaire Universel d'Histoire Naturelle," published in 1849, are as follows:
**First Print:**
1. **Veretillum cynomorium** - Commonly known as the "sea pen," this species resembles a quill pen, hence the name. It's a type of soft coral in the order Pennatulacea.
2. **Actinia equina** - This is the common sea anemone, often found on rocky shores.
2.2 **Actinia equina (contracted)** - The same species, shown in a contracted state, which sea anemones can do when disturbed or when they are conserving moisture during low tide.
**Second Print:**
1. **Flustra foliacea** - Also known as the "hornwrack," a type of bryozoan, which is a colonial organism...
