Mix-up: Conchiglie di Cistoidea – Ernst Haeckel Capolavori because they weren't beautiful enoughThese drawings are incredibly detailed yet aesthetically beautiful and have influenced modern evolutionary culture. They put us in continuous contact with nature! The cystoids were studied and drawn by Ernst Haeckel, a Darwinist zoologist who lived between the 1800s and early 1900s. The image comes from his book "Kunstformen der Natur". Printed on a sheet of an ancient Italian art encyclopedia. Frame not included.
