Diverse bloemen 1820 - 1833

"Diverse bloemen" is a detailed botanical illustration by Anton Weiss, created between 1820 and 1833. The drawing, now housed in the Rijksmuseum, depicts a single stem of a flowering plant with delicate leaves and blossoms. Weiss's meticulous attention to detail is evident in the rendering of the plant's structure and the subtle nuances of its coloration. This work exemplifies the precision and scientific accuracy characteristic of botanical illustrations during the 19th century.
