FEATURED WORK

Jonathan Singer's vision combines a sculptor’s sense of form, a painter’s sense of composition, and a cinematographer’s sense of light to capture archetypal portraits of the world’s rarest botanica. His Magnum Opus, ‘Botanica Magnifica,’ is a collection of two hundred and fifty images housed in the first "Double Elephant" folio since Birds of North America. This five-volume collection may be the most important archival documentation of botanicals since John James Audubon assembled his illustratons for the benefit of the world of science two centuries ago.Botanica Magnifica measures a magnificent 35" x 47". Each volume will contain 50 images printed on handmade paper by Cone Editions in East Topsham,Vermont. They are bound by Tini Miura.The first edition is
destined to be housed in a famous museum, and has received rave reviews from world experts in botany to experts in rare books.Dr. Singer has also received the endorsement of the president of
Hasselblad USA for his splendid achievement.

The botanical curator for Botanica Magnifica is Marc Hachadourian,curator of the Glasshouse Collections at the New York Botanical Garden
in the Bronx.He oversees the selection of photographs for Botanica Magnifica as well as checking for botanical accuracy.


For a limited time, selected individual prints will be available from Botanica Magnifica for purchase at the Westwood Gallery, Jonathan
Singer's sole representative.
