German Meadow Orchids: A Heritage of Botanical Artistry, 1904
About the Item
This collage presents a selection of orchid illustrations that exude the charm and detail characteristic of early 20th-century botanical art. Each image is a study of the orchid species native to Germany and the surrounding regions, as depicted by Walter Müller.
The first illustration, "Orchis palustris Jaeg.," showcases the marsh orchid with its vibrant purple flowers arranged in a dense, elegant spike and accompanied by a detailed view of its flower structure and root bulb.
Following is "Orchis laxiflora Lam.," a portrayal of the loose-flowered orchid, with its delicate red-purple blossoms that gracefully adorn the slender stem, giving a glimpse into the plant's anatomy with a dissection of the flower and its tuberous roots.
The third, "Orchis morio L.," presents the green-winged orchid, which sports small yet strikingly patterned flowers in shades of purple and green, complete with a detailed cross-section and a view of the seed pod.
Finally, "Orchis mascula L." features the early-purple orchid, known for its vibrant purple inflorescence and distinctive, marked flowers, accompanied by botanical details of its reproductive parts.
Together, these images form a collage that not only documents the diverse beauty of orchids but also serves as a testament to the meticulous work of botanical illustrators who bridged the gap between science and art. This collection celebrates the natural heritage and botanical diversity found within the German landscape over a century ago.
