Carl Corns Development Grains Stages 1901
Corns and Grains at Different Stages of Development
EDITORS COMMENTS
is a captivating lithograph print created by Carl Correns in 1901. This intriguing image showcases the intricacies of corn and grain development, providing a unique glimpse into the natural world. Correns, a renowned German botanist, meticulously captured the various stages of corn and grain growth in this stunning work of art. The print begins with the earliest stages of corn development, featuring a single kernel nestled within the husk. As the corn matures, the tassels emerge, followed by the development of the ears, filled with plump, golden kernels. The lower half of the print focuses on the development of grains, showcasing the transformation from a tiny seed to a fully grown grain. The intricate details of the grains' growth are beautifully rendered, with each stage illustrated in precise detail. Correns' "Bastarde zwischen Maisrassen, mit besonderer Berücksichtigung der Xenien" (Bastard Corns between Maize Varieties, with Special Consideration of Xenia) was published in 1901 as part of a larger botanical study. The print is a testament to Correns' dedication to documenting the natural world and his artistic ability to bring the complexities of plant development to life. This exquisite lithograph is not only a valuable scientific resource but also an aesthetically pleasing work of art, making it an essential addition to any collection focused on botany, agriculture, or the natural sciences. The intricate details and stunning visuals make it an engaging and educational piece that continues to captivate viewers over a century after its creation.
