Merian

Maria Sibylla Merian (* April 2, 1647 in Frankfurt am Main; † January 13, 1717 in Amsterdam) was a natural scientist and artist. With an extraordinarily self-confident spirit, she defied the conventions of the time and was one of the first female scientists of modernity.

As a natural scientist she used her talent as a graphic artist and her special style inspired us to create this collection, in which we translated her own style into finely structured drawings in enamel.
