Callistemma brachiatum is a 1928 by Karl Blossfeldt, held at National Gallery of Art.
This is a close-up of a weird, spiky plant. It looks like a cross between a mushroom and a feather duster. The top is fuzzy and dark, while the base has long, thin strands hanging down. This is actually a type of marine plant. The artist took a photo and turned it into a print. Look up Blossfeldt, Karl to see more of his strange plant photos.
