About the Artist

Ernst Haeckel (1834–1919) was a prominent German zoologist and artist who famously bridged the gap between science and art through his meticulous documentation of biological life. His work in Kunstformen der Natur became a visual vocabulary of organic forms that directly inspired contemporary designers and architects of the Art Nouveau era.
