Historical Flora: Orchids of 1904 in Art and Science
About the Item
In this collage are two botanical illustrations from Walter Müller's esteemed 1904 work, detailing the orchid species of Germany and its environs.
The first print showcases "Orchis globosa L.", characterized by its globular, dense cluster of pink flowers, each exhibiting intricate spots and a classic orchid form.
The second illustration reveals "Orchis tridentata Scop.", notable for its strikingly patterned flowers, a botanical marvel with three distinct lobes.
Both prints are rendered with precision, capturing the subtle gradations of color and form, and feature detailed depictions of the plants' leaf structures and bulbous roots. Insets provide a closer examination of the reproductive parts, underscoring the scientific significance of Müller's work. These illustrations embody the intersection of artistry and botanical study at the turn of the 20th century, preserving the ethereal beauty of these orchids for future generations.
