About the Item
Antique Grain Studies – Wheat Varieties Botanical Lithographs, Calwer 1852
This focused two-plate set presents advanced botanical studies of wheat varieties from Carl Gustav Calwer’s Landwirthschaftliche und technische Pflanzenkunde (1852). The plates show subtle differences in grain structure and ear formation, reflecting the scientific rigor of mid-19th-century agricultural research.
Designed for instruction and comparison, these images exemplify the educational mission of Calwer’s work. Today, their restrained palette and repetitive forms give them a quiet elegance that suits modern interiors, studies, or libraries.
This set will appeal particularly to collectors of scientific illustration, agricultural history, or early applied botany.
