EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the delicate beauty of Hair-like Sedge (Carex capillaris), a plant belonging to the Cyperaceae family. Created by an anonymous German artist in the 19th century, this colour lithograph is part of a private collection. The image originates from Anton Hartinger's renowned "Atlas of the Alpine flora" (Atlas der Alpenflora) published in Vienna between 1881 and 1884. This botanical illustration provides a detailed depiction of Haarförmige Segge, highlighting its intricate structure and unique characteristics. The fine lines and vibrant colors used in this lithograph bring out every minute detail, making it a true masterpiece. The composition captures the essence of this herbaceous plant, which belongs to the commelinids order within botany. Hair-like Sedge is known for its slender leaves that resemble strands of hair, hence its name. This print serves as both an artistic representation and scientific documentation of this fascinating species found in alpine regions. Bridgeman Images has preserved this historical artwork through their Fine Art Finder collection. It offers viewers an opportunity to appreciate nature's wonders while also acknowledging the contributions made by artists like Anton Hartinger in advancing our understanding of plants and their diverse forms.
