Ernst Haeckel's "Actiniae-Seeanemonen" from his seminal work *Kunstformen der Natur* (1904) is a mesmerizing exploration of the intricate beauty of sea anemones, rendered with scientific precision and artistic flair. Haeckel, a German biologist, naturalist, and artist, was born in 1834 and lived through a period marked by significant scientific discoveries and the burgeoning field of evolutionary biology. He was a contemporary of Charles Darwin and a fervent advocate of Darwinism, which deeply influenced his work.

Haeckel's art is characterized by its fusion of science and aesthetics, a style that can be described as "scientific illustration." His philosophical approach was rooted in the idea that nature's forms reflect an inherent order and beauty, a concept he sought to convey through his meticulous illustrations. In "Actiniae-Seeanemonen," Haeckel captures the delicate symmetry and vibrant forms of sea anemones, using lithography to achieve fine detail and vivid color.

The piece belongs to the genre of natural history illustration, with a focus on marine biology. Haeckel's work was significant in that it bridged the gap between science and art, inspiring both fields. The original illustration is part of the collection housed at the Ernst Haeckel Haus in Jena, Germany, serving as a testament to his enduring influence on both scientific and artistic communities.
