About - Fine Art Print Banana Blossom

This print is a professional reproduction of the original painting Banana Blossom from the Natural Ology gallery wall original collection (originals yet to be released).

I have a small fascination with banana blooms - they are strangely beautiful things. I would never have thought them a good painting subject matter had it not been for botanical drawings by Maria Sibylla Merian and Christoph Trew, who captured the exotic beauty of the humble banana and their interesting blooms.
