EDITORS COMMENTS
This vibrant and detailed lithograph captures the beauty of the Alpine Saw-wort, also known as Saussurea discolor. Created by an unknown German artist in the 19th century, this print is part of a private collection and showcases the exquisite illustration skills prevalent during that time. The image is taken from Anton Hartinger's "Atlas of the Alpine flora" published between 1881 and 1884 in Vienna. The Zweifarbige Saussuree, or two-colored saw-wort, is depicted with precision, highlighting its delicate petals and intricate structure. This botanical artwork provides a glimpse into the diverse world of alpine plants found in Austria. The Alpine Saw-wort belongs to the asterid family and can be classified under asterales and carduoideae. It stands out for its unique appearance among other herbs, making it a fascinating subject for botany enthusiasts. This lithograph not only serves as a visual delight but also holds historical significance as it represents a period when scientific exploration was at its peak. With attention to detail and accurate representation, this print offers viewers an opportunity to appreciate nature's wonders through art. Bridgeman Images has preserved this exceptional piece of botanical history through their Fine Art Finder platform. As we admire this stunning depiction of the Alpine Saw-wort, let us remember how art can bridge gaps between science and aesthetics while celebrating our natural world.
