Description
Leipzig and Wien, Verlag des Bibliographischen Instituts, 1900. Folio-sized sheet, printed on one side (36.3 x 27.3 cm). Blue-printed lithograph. = A very fine, lithographed plate, showing the amazing symmetry and elegance of feather corals. All are finely drawn by the author. Ernst Haeckel, a gifted artist, keen observer, and great zoologist, was the first to explore the riches of nature in microscopical forms, shapes, textures, and ornaments. This highly influenced the Art Nouveau and Jugendstil movements in the fine and applied arts. Some very light, marginal toning, one corner with a tiny crease, otherwise very good, with the printing delicate, yet strong.
