Useful images as reference for artists and textile creations

Karl Blossfeldt was an early 20th century photographer who created his own cameras to take pictures of plant surfaces in magnified detail.This edition is a republication of the 1929 book: "Art Forms in Nature: Examples from the Plant World Photographed Direct from Nature".Due to the era that these images are from we cannot expect high resolution photographs but the reproduction in this book is not as good as the images in his other book: "The Alphabet of Plants" (ISBN: 978-3-8296-0304-1). However, this book has more images and explores with greater variety the relationship between art and nature that the pioneering work of Blossfeldt revealed.

Incredible close up images of plants, beautiful patterns and design ides. I saw a copy while on a course and had to have one to refer to.

Disappointing pictures, look like photocopies, I've seen better

A suberb visual reference book for teachers and artists.

Ok

Item as described. Packed with photographs.

Fotos antiguas pero buenas e inspiradoras.

This book fascinated me at one of the gift shops when I was travelling but I didn't have room in my luggage for it. Amazon delivered the book while I was still away, and the price was great, too.

Received as promised in good condition. Thank you!
