EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a stunning collection of carnivorous plants, beautifully depicted in vibrant colors through a lithographic technique. Created by the German School in the 19th century, this artwork is now part of a private collection. The image originates from Meyers Konversations-Lexicon, an encyclopedia published around 1895. The photograph features various species of these intriguing plants, including the California pitcher plant, Venus flytrap, common butterwort, and common sundew. These tropical wonders are known for their unique ability to attract and capture insects as a source of nutrients. Each plant's distinct characteristics are highlighted in this composition: from the delicate tendrils and sticky tentacles of the sundew to the intricate mechanisms employed by the waterwheel plant and bladderwort to trap unsuspecting prey. The pitcher plant stands tall with its elegant shape resembling that of a pitcher or vase. This educational piece not only celebrates nature's diversity but also provides valuable insights into botany and biology. It serves as a reminder that even within seemingly ordinary flora lies extraordinary adaptations for survival. Bridgeman Images has preserved this historical gem which offers viewers an opportunity to appreciate both artistry and scientific curiosity intertwined seamlessly on paper.
