Ernst Haeckel’s Chameleon

Chameleon

Ernst Haeckel was a reknown 19th century biologist, naturalist, philosopher, and last but not least, artist. His extraordinary work “Kunstformen der Natur” (Art Forms in Nature) includes a hundred beautiful illustrations of animals and plants. This exceptional work had a important influence on the Art Nouveau movement of his time.
