| Description |
Pollinia Source material: Franz Bauer was employed by Sir Joseph Banks at the Royal Botanical Gardens, Kew, where he painted many beautiful and meticulous pictures of orchids. He was a talented microscopist, and his painting (1801) of four pollinia of Bletia purpurea, with their thousands of individual pollen grains, is testimony to his patience. The Battle of Copenhagen was fought also in 1801. See Joyce Stewart and William T. Stearn, The Orchid Paintings of Franz Bauer, London, 1993, pp. 22, 152. Bauer always wrote p as b, and vice-versa, hence his unusual spelling of Feldsberg. |
