Ernst Haeckel Bivalvia Striking Black & White Poster
At the turn of the 20th century, Ernst Haeckel was an eminent German biologist, naturalist, philosopher, physician, professor, and artist. He discovered, described, and named thousands of new species, mapped a genealogical tree relating all life forms, and coined many terms in biology, including anthropogeny, ecology, phylum, phylogeny, and stem cell. This illustration is plate 55 (often wrongly labeled "Acephala"--which are plants) from his 1904 book "Kunstformen der Natur" (Art Forms In Nature). It displays several species of Bivalvia which are a group of mollusks which includes the clams, mussels, oysters, and scallops. Before purchasing, please be sure to select the size and type of paper you want. For more black & white Haeckel art prints to coordinate, see my Collection, "Ernst Haeckel Illustrations."
