Rumex acetosella & Trifolium monanthemum

This vintage herbarium sheet brings together two beautifully contrasting alpine and meadow species. On the left, a delicate specimen of Rumex acetosella—Sheep’s Sorrel—extends upward in airy, branching stems dotted with small, rust-colored seed clusters. Its slender leaves add to the plant’s graceful vertical rhythm.

On the right, a compact and charming specimen of Trifolium monanthemum, a mountain clover, displays its distinctive rounded leaflets and a softly textured flower head. The preserved bloom shows warm tones that echo years of gentle aging.

Handwritten French notes identify each plant, offering a glimpse into the botanist’s careful observation. Original mounting tape and naturally aged paper give the sheet its warm archival character, making it a special addition to any botanical collection.
