Ernst Haeckel was not only a biologist but also a philosopher, physician, professor, marine biologist, and artist who contributed to the discovery and documentation of thousands of new species. His work "Kunstformen der Natur" is particularly notable for its combination of scientific accuracy and artistic beauty. Haeckel’s illustrations are renowned for their detailed and delicate depictions, which bridge the gap between art and science.
This specific illustration, Leptomedusae Faltenquallen, portrays the fascinating world of jellyfish with stunning realism and vibrant detail. The artwork features several jellyfish, with delicate tentacles and translucent bodies rendered in various shades of blues and purples, which dazzle the viewer with their ethereal beauty.
