Best Answer

Karl Blossfeldt was a famous German photographer. He mostly took photos of plants and flowers, with a plain white background.

  • Karl was born on the 13th of June, 1865 in Schielo, Harz, Germany.
  • He became a photographer. Most of his work was photographing flowers and other life forms. He was inspired by the way plants grow, most of all pansies.
  • His book of artwork, called "Urformen der Kunst," is worth $9500 - $12,500.
  • Karl also worked as a teacher in Berlin.
  • Unfortunately, his son was not interested in his art, so there was no-one to carry on his work.
  • His photographs were intended as guides for industrial designers and art students to demonstrate the structure and the beauty inherent in plant forms.
  • Karl died on December 9th, 1932 at age 67.
