EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the Alpine Cat s-tail, a beautiful plant known scientifically as Phleum alpinum. The artwork is a colour lithograph created by an anonymous German artist in the 19th century and is now part of a private collection. The image was originally featured in the "Atlas of the Alpine flora" (Atlas der Alpenflora) by Anton Hartinger, published between 1881 and 1884 in Vienna. This comprehensive atlas aimed to document and illustrate various plants found in the Alps region. The Alpine Cat s-tail, also referred to as Alpen-Lieschgras, belongs to the Poaceae family and can be found growing on mountain slopes. Its delicate yet vibrant appearance adds charm to any landscape it inhabits. This particular print captures every intricate detail of this remarkable grass species. From its slender stems adorned with fluffy flower heads to its lush green foliage, viewers are transported into the enchanting world of alpine botany. Bridgeman Images has preserved this exquisite piece of botanical illustration from ePurix Verlag Volker Christen's collection. It serves as a testament not only to nature's beauty but also to humanity's enduring fascination with capturing it through art.
