Shooting Star

Robert Thornton's Temple of Flora from 1807 illustrates the sexual system developed by Carl Linnaeus.

A member of the primrose family and native to North America, this lovely Cowslip flower is more commonly known as Shooting Star, a much more fitting name for such a delicate flower. 

Printed with Japanese archival ink on a matte Hahnemühle paper in our own studio in rural Copenhagen, Denmark.
