About This Artwork
This phone case reproduces a chromolithograph page of trees from Larousse du XXe Siècle, collapsing the forest's entire year into portable form. Spring flowers bloom in pink; summer foliage cascades in deep woodland greens; autumn berries cluster in red; winter exposes the tree's skeletal anatomy through trunk cross-sections.
The artist worked with naturalist precision, rendering each species not as romantic backdrop but as documented subject—a taxonomy made visible. Numbered like herbarium specimens, the trees occupy a cream-colored ground without hierarchy or narrative drama. Every berry, every leaf, every flowering branch reflects chromatic exactitude; umber tones suggest aging wood without melancholy.
The encyclopedic tradition insisted that knowing required seeing, and seeing required accuracy. And your phone becomes a wearable lesson in how nature organizes itself across seasons, how the same tree holds infinite forms within a single root system. Allowing species recognition to become intimate. The encyclopedic impulse, born from desire to know completely, becoming a form of devotion.
