Botanical Lithograph of Hops and Wood Sorrel, Calwer, Deutschlands Pflanzen 1854

About the Item

Calwer C. G. Deutschlands Technische Pflanzen, Stuttgart, Krais & Hoffmann, 1854. This exquisite botanical lithograph originates from Carl Georg Calwer’s renowned work on the technical plants of Germany, a publication celebrated for its scientific precision and artistic quality. The detailed illustration showcases hops (Humulus lupulus) and wood sorrel (Oxalis acetosella), both rendered with remarkable clarity and vibrant hand-coloring. The intricate depiction of leaves, stems, flowers, and roots highlights the practical and aesthetic importance of these species in the mid-19th century. Hops are notably valued for their use in brewing, medicine, and dye production, while wood sorrel is recognized for its culinary and medicinal properties. The scientific annotations add further historical and educational value, reflecting the meticulous nature of botanical studies during this period. This lithograph is an ideal piece for collectors of antique botanical prints, natural history enthusiasts, or those seeking unique wall art. Its timeless design and educational appeal make it suitable for framing, enhancing the atmosphere of libraries, offices, or living spaces. This rare original print combines artistic beauty with historical significance. A stunning addition to any collection, it offers insight into 19th-century botanical artistry and the utilitarian role of plants in society.
