Microcladia coulteri and Osmundea with Gmelin, Plate xx: Contemporary scans incorporating an illustration by Samuel Gottleib Gmelin from Historia Fucorum (1768). Gmelin’s volume was the first flora describing the seaweeds, or marine algae as a separate grouping from vascular plants giving rise to their study as a discrete corner of botany. I have created a series of images where my contemporary scans work in dialogue through time with historic taxonomic imagery.
