Edwin Hale Lincoln's 1931 photograph "Habenaria Andrewsii- Andrew's Rose Purple Orchid" depicts a single, delicate orchid flower in stark detail. The monochromatic nature of the photograph emphasizes the intricate textures of the plant, highlighting the intricate details of the orchid's petals, stem, and leaves. This piece, part of the Minneapolis Institute of Art's collection, showcases Lincoln's meticulous approach to botanical photography, a genre popularized in the early 20th century.
