Description
A Brendel Chamomile anthemis Flower on average plus a marginal and disc flower. The no. 118 flower in the Brendel catalogue is an enlarged depiction 8- 24 times of wood, plaster and metal.
The model arises from an ebonized turned wooden stand with a blue label, Signed ‘R. Brendel’, with the names of the chamomile in different languages, which suggests this model is an older model of the 1860/80’s. A colored drawing is included in the Brendel catalogue.
