"Germania offert bloemen aan een standbeeld van Flora" (Germania offers flowers to a statue of Flora) is an engraving by Daniel Nikolaus Chodowiecki, a German artist who was active in the late 18th century. The engraving depicts a symbolic scene in which Germania, a personification of Germany, offers flowers to a statue of Flora, the Roman goddess of flowers and spring. This artwork, likely made to represent German cultural development, is a fine example of Neoclassicism.
