Tillandsia Havanensis — Nikolaus Joseph von Jacquin
Nikolaus Joseph von Jacquin’s Tillandsia havanensis presents an elegant tropical plant defined by long, arching leaves and a tall architectural flowering stem. Narrow blades of deep and muted green spread outward from the base, while the upper stem divides into a balanced crown of pointed flower spikes rendered in warm russet, chestnut, and pale ochre tones.
The flowing foliage contrasts beautifully with the structured inflorescence above, while a network of fine exposed roots completes the botanical study below. Set against an expansive warm cream ground, the restrained palette and precise linework give plate 94 the clarity and quiet character associated with eighteenth-century natural-history illustration.
