{"product_id":"field-elm-flowers-of-germany","title":"Field Elm- Flowers of Germany","description":"\u003cp\u003eThis elegant chromolithograph from Professor Thomé's landmark Flora von Deutschland captures the Field Elm (Ulmus campestris) in comprehensive botanical detail. Published in the early 1900s as plate 179, it exemplifies the pinnacle of German scientific illustration, presenting the tree's flowering branches, mature foliage, and distinctive winged seeds with meticulous accuracy.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe composition follows classical botanical conventions: a generous branch displaying the elm's characteristic serrated, asymmetrical leaves alongside the papery samaras, complemented by detailed anatomical studies of the flower structure and seed development. The naturalistic color palette, achieved through precise chromolithographic printing, brings scientific rigor and aesthetic beauty into perfect harmony.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eA handsome example of Wilhelmine-era natural history publishing, this plate carries added resonance today given the tragic decline of European elms to disease. A distinguished addition for collectors of botanical art, natural history prints, or classic scientific illustration.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSize:\u003c\/strong\u003e 8.5\" x 6.0\"\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eArtist:\u003c\/strong\u003e Walter Müller\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCondition:\u003c\/strong\u003e Very Good, Age-appropriate wear.
