Tulips
A prized tulip, the Semper Augustus. It was a rare and expensive find in the 1600s, and even moreso now since its variegation is due to a specific virus. See this link.
I study art history and I tend to find curious things that incite questions, reveal our corporeal unease, and generally make us think about how we consider the human body conceptually and physically. And so I present to you the strange gems I've come across.
