Vintage Swedish Herbarium - Wood Cranesbill Geranium, circa 1926

Pressed between paper nearly a century ago. A Swedish summer, 1926: a wild geranium gathered in the countryside, violet-blue petals captured before the blooms faded. Each vein, each stem, preserved with the quiet patience of a botanist’s hand. Once a simple woodland bloom, now a fragment of time itself, an authentic herbarium, carrying the hum of bees, the scent of meadow air, and the memory of long northern evenings.
