EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a collection of rare African plants, beautifully depicted in vibrant colors through the art of engraving. Created by the German School in the 19th century, this piece is now part of a private collection, preserving its historical and botanical significance. The image originates from "A Bilderbuch für Kinder" (Picture Book for Children), published between 1790 and 1830 by Friedrich Justin Bertuch, an influential figure in German educational literature. The book aimed to educate young minds about various subjects, including nature's wonders. Amongst the featured flora is the fascinating Stapelia pulvinata, commonly known as the cushion-like Stapelia plant. Its unique shape and ornamental qualities make it a true marvel to behold. This particular engraving captures its intricate details with precision and elegance. Through this print, we are transported back in time to explore Africa's rich biodiversity while appreciating the artistic mastery behind each stroke of ink on paper. It serves as a reminder of our planet's natural beauty and encourages us to cherish and protect these rare species for generations to come. Thanks to Bridgeman Images' efforts in digitizing such remarkable works of art like this one from their Fine Art Finder collection, we can continue to admire and learn from them even centuries later.
