READ::EDVARD KOINBERG'S HERBARIUM AMORIS FLORAL ROMANCE

Photobucket

When Swedish botanist and physician Carl Linnaeus developed the notion that plants have genitalia in the 1700s, it sent the world of botany into a tizzy. The idea that plants can be sexualized the way Linnaeus had suggested provoked a 'sexual revolution' in plant taxonomy. And now, in this Taschen released book, photographer Edvard Koinberg compiles a visual calendar that charts the development of this theory shown through images of various luminous flowers.
