EDITORS COMMENTS
This coloured engraving from the 19th century showcases a collection of strange and fascinating plants. The print, titled "Strange Plants" is part of a private collection and was created by an anonymous German School artist. It originates from Friedrich Justin Bertuch's renowned Picture Book for Children, published between 1790 and 1830. The image features various unique plant species in intricate detail. Among them are the water velvet, European pepperwort, common salvinia, pillwort, lake quillwort, feathered mosquitofern, and many more. Each plant is meticulously depicted with vibrant colors that bring out their distinct characteristics. The composition exudes an air of mystery as these unusual plants seem to emerge from an ethereal background. Their delicate forms and intricate structures invite viewers into a world where nature's wonders take on extraordinary shapes. This historical engraving serves as a testament to the curiosity and fascination humans have long held for the natural world. It captures not only the scientific interest but also the artistic appreciation for botanical beauty prevalent during this era. Preserved through time by ePurix Verlag Volker Christen's efforts, this artwork continues to inspire awe and wonder today. Its timeless charm invites us to explore nature's diversity while reminding us of our connection to past generations who marveled at its mysteries.
