Medusa Chrysanthemum

The Medusa Chrysanthemum belongs to the Nessima Collection. The delicate ribbon like petals sometimes bend and twist about the stalk in a graceful, serpent like fashion.

This beautiful lithograph with pronounced Japanese influence, is based from a nature study watercolor by Alois Lunzer.

Accompanying this print is a companion poem called Grace by Louis Carroll.
