EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the exquisite beauty of Monkshood (Acontium Napellus), a vibrant flower that belongs to the ranunculaceae family. The colour lithograph, created by the German School in the 19th century, is part of a private collection and holds historical significance. The image originates from Anton Hartinger's renowned "Atlas of the Alpine flora" (Atlas der Alpenflora) published between 1881 and 1884 in Vienna. This botanical masterpiece captures Echter Eisenhut, also known as monkshood or wolfsbane, with remarkable precision and attention to detail. The intricate illustration highlights every delicate petal and leaf, allowing viewers to appreciate its unique structure. The vivid colors bring this enchanting plant to life while showcasing its elegance against a contrasting background. Monkshood has long been revered for its medicinal properties but must be handled with caution due to its toxicity. Its tall stems adorned with deep blue-purple flowers make it an alluring subject for botany enthusiasts and art lovers alike. This exceptional print serves as a testament to both nature's wonders and human creativity. It invites us into a world where science meets artistry, capturing our imagination through meticulous observation and artistic interpretation.
