Poison Garden Grand
Set of 6
The complete poison garden as a gallery wall, six plants that shaped European pharmacy, folklore and literature in equal measure. Together they trace the long history of botany's most storied shadows, drawn from authentic 1887 chromolithographs and arranged as a calm, considered set.
Belladonna and foxglove anchor the group with their Renaissance and cottage garden associations. Opium poppy carries four thousand years of poetry as the Sumerian joy plant. Monkshood brings its hooded blue flower from Norse legend. Hemlock is the philosopher's plant, remembered from the death of Socrates. Henbane, sacred in antiquity to Apollo, completes the set with its strange, pale blooms.
A set of six Koehler botanical posters from the 1887 atlas. The definitive dark academia gallery wall for a study, library or collector's home, and a considered gift for anyone drawn to botanical history.
