EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the delicate beauty of Felwort (Sweertia perennis), a vibrant flowering plant found in the Alpine region. The colour lithograph, created by an anonymous German artist from the 19th century, is part of a private collection and was originally featured in Anton Hartinger's renowned "Atlas of the Alpine flora" published in Vienna between 1881 and 1884. The image captures the Ausdauernde Swertie, also known as Tarant or Felwort, with meticulous detail and precision. Every petal, leaf, and stem is depicted with such accuracy that it feels as though one could reach out and touch this botanical wonder. This illustration serves as a testament to both scientific observation and artistic skill. Felwort belongs to the Gentianaceae family within the order Gentianales. Its presence adds vibrancy to alpine meadows where it thrives alongside other asterids and eudicots. As we admire this illustration, we are reminded of nature's intricate tapestry that encompasses countless species like Felwort. This stunning print not only celebrates botany but also pays homage to historical scientific exploration. It invites us into a world where art meets science seamlessly – where knowledge is shared through visual representation. Let this image transport you to an era when naturalists roamed mountainsides in search of undiscovered treasures like Felwort – forever preserved for our admiration thanks to Bridgeman Images' dedication to preserving fine art prints like this one.
