Haeckel - Discomedusae pink - Ocean 2024, A2 poster

Louisiana Museum of Modern Art’s poster features Discomedusae, a drawing by German biologist and philosopher Ernst Haeckel, which was originally published in his iconic volume Nature’s Art Forms (1899–1904). With delicate lines and intricate detail, Haeckel’s illustrations demonstrate that scientific exploration can be artistically captivating and beautiful, too. The original poster was published as part of Louisiana’s major 2024 exhibition OCEAN, which explored humanity’s complex relationship with the sea – a realm both familiar and profoundly mysterious.
