Ernst Heinrich Philipp August Haeckel (1834 -1919) was a German biologist, naturalist, philosopher, physician, professor and artist who discovered, described and named thousands of new species, mapped a genealogical tree relating all life forms, and coined many terms in biology, including anthropogeny, ecology, phylum, phylogeny, stem cell, and the kingdom Protista.); Prismatic Pictures

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a stunning collection of Nepenthaceae, also known as tropical pitcher plants or monkey cups, from Ernst Haeckel's renowned work Kunstformen der Natur. The vibrant colors and intricate details of these carnivorous plants are brought to life through the artistry of Haeckel's color lithograph. Ernst Haeckel was not only a biologist and naturalist but also an accomplished artist. His meticulous drawings and scientific illustrations played a crucial role in defining the process of taxonomy and classifying organisms. In this particular artwork, he skillfully captures the symmetries and adaptations of these insectivorous plants with their bold colors, tendrils, and trapping mechanisms. The composition exudes a sense of order within nature as each plant is meticulously arranged according to its taxonomic classification. This hierarchical grouping allows us to appreciate the diversity and beauty found within the animal kingdom. Haeckel's artistic approach combines both scientific accuracy and aesthetic appeal. Through his lithographic prints, he invites us into the lush rainforests of the tropics where these fascinating carnivores thrive. The attention to detail in each engraved plate transports us into a world where microscopic super groups coexist with larger-than-life botanical wonders. This print serves as a testament to Haeckel's immense contributions to both biology and art. It reminds us that even in scientific study, there is room for creativity, imagination, and appreciation for nature's colorful marvels.
