Examples of Siphonophorae from Kunstformen der Natur, 1899 (colour litho)
746700 Examples of Siphonophorae from Kunstformen der Natur, 1899 (colour litho) by Haeckel, Ernst (1824-1919) (after); Private Collection; (add.info.: Siphonophorae or Siphonophora, are an order of the Hydrozoa, a class of marine invertebrates belonging to the phylum Cnidaria. Although a Siphonophore appears to be a single organism, each specimen is actually a colony composed of many individual animals.
Ernst Heinrich Philipp August Haeckel (1834 -1919) was a German biologist, naturalist, philosopher, physician, professor and artist who discovered, described and named thousands of new species, mapped a genealogical tree relating all life forms, and coined many terms in biology, including anthropogeny, ecology, phylum, phylogeny, stem cell, and the kingdom Protista.); Prismatic Pictures

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the intricate beauty of Siphonophorae, a unique order of marine invertebrates. The image is taken from Ernst Haeckel's renowned work "Kunstformen der Natur" (Art Forms of Nature), published in 1899. Haeckel, a multifaceted German biologist and artist, meticulously depicted these organisms through his exceptional talent for both scientific observation and artistic representation. Siphonophores may appear as single organisms at first glance, but they are actually colonies composed of numerous individual animals. This fascinating example of nature's complexity highlights the interconnectedness and hierarchical organization found within the animal kingdom. Through vibrant colors and delicate details, this lithographic composition brings to life the mesmerizing symmetries present in these oceanic creatures. Haeckel's illustrations not only serve as aesthetic masterpieces but also contribute to our understanding of taxonomy and classification. His meticulous study enabled him to discover, describe, and name thousands of new species during his lifetime. By mapping genealogical trees and coining essential biological terms like phylum and phylogeny, Haeckel made significant contributions to the field of biology. As we gaze upon this stunning artwork capturing the diversity within Siphonophorae, we are reminded that nature's wonders extend far beyond what meets the eye. It serves as a testament to humanity's ongoing quest for knowledge about our natural world – an endeavor that continues today thanks to scientists like Haeckel who dedicated their lives to unraveling its mysteries.
