Two of the great traditions of late 19th and early 20th-century botanical education meet in this journal: the Russian educational poster tradition of the Tipografiya Tovarishchestva I.D. Sytina — pre-revolutionary Russia’s most important educational publisher — and the German scientific botanical illustration tradition of Otto Wilhelm Thomé’s Flora von Deutschland, Österreich und der Schweiz (1885). The front cover presents Sytina’s 1910 Russian school poster documenting the Norway Spruce (Picea abies) and Silver Birch (Betula pendula) in bold educational lithography with Art Nouveau-influenced aesthetics; the back cover presents Thomé’s plate of Picea abies — cones, needles, seeds, and reproductive structures rendered with the scientific precision and hand-coloured beauty that made Thomé’s Flora one of the most celebrated botanical publications of the late 19th century.
