Check out the new exhibit “In Search of Thoreau’s Flowers: An Exploration of Change and Loss” at the #Harvard Museum of Natural History. . Henry David Thoreau was prolific in his collection of botanical specimens, and these phenological records have long been in the collection of the Harvard Herbarium. Curator Leah Sobsey digitized all 648 original samples collected by #Thoreau to create a series of #cyanotypes on display in the show. Specimens are printed in dark or light to show the changing environment around Walden and which species still thrive, or are now endangered in the area. Artist Robin Vuchnich used the digitized records to create a immersive digital experience complete with soundscapes from #Walden to accompany the exhibit. . The Harvard Museum of Natural History is located on Oxford Street just outside Harvard Square #museumstagram #phenology #botany #henrydavidthoreau #igersboston (at Harvard Museum of Natural History) https://www.instagram.com/p/Cd_eJc5O1v_/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=
