EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a remarkable fossil maple leaf, known as Fossil Maple C016 / 5955. This exquisite specimen originates from the Miocene period and was discovered in Oeningen, Baden, Germany. Preserved with utmost care at the prestigious Natural History Museum in London, UK, this delicate leaf offers us a glimpse into the ancient world of botany. Against a striking black background, this nature-inspired artwork highlights the intricate details of this fossilized Acer trilobatum leaf. Belonging to the family Aceraceae and commonly referred to as sycamore or great maple, this particular species flourished during the Miocene era. The significance of this find lies not only in its botanical beauty but also in its contribution to paleontology. As an angiosperm or flowering plant belonging to the dicotyledon group within magnoliophyta (also known as eudicots), it provides valuable insights into prehistoric ecosystems and evolution. Transporting us back millions of years ago during the Tertiary period within Phanerozoic Eon's Cenozoic Era, this fossil is a testament to Earth's rich history. Its presence reminds us that long before humans roamed these lands, diverse flora thrived across Europe. Through Science Photo Library's collaboration with Natural History Museum London, we can marvel at such wonders of nature while appreciating our planet's incredible biodiversity. Let this awe-inspiring image serve as a reminder that even fossils have stories
