Batchelder's Nature Symbols

by Cyanocorax - uploaded on June 5, 2022, 10:58 pm

A pattern of “nature symbols”, vectorized from Fig. 104 in the book Design in theory and practice (1910), by Ernest Allen Batchelder.

As Batchelder himself points out, the mushroom-like shapes can be further elaborated into flowers.

This is of course Art Nouveau, and the influence of Japanese art here is quite obvious.
