Im Auftrag des Reichsgrafen Johann Georg Dernath porträtierte der Kunstmaler Johann Gottfried Simula im Jahre 1720 zahlreiche Zierpflanzen und exotische Gewächse aus dessen Gutsgärten und Orangerie in Ostholstein. Dernath war ein begeisterter Gartenliebhaber, der in den Pflanzendarstellungen des Künstlers die vergängliche Pracht der Blüten für die Nachwelt festhalten und zugleich die Erfolge seiner gärtnerischen Zucht und Pflege bekunden wollte: Die farbfrischen Aquarelle zeigen die zur damaligen Zeit in hoher Gunst stehenden Blumenarten, unter ihnen eine Fülle seltener Pflanzen, mit denen adlige und großbürgerliche Herren um den Besitz exotischer Raritäten wetteiferten. Das botanische Prachtwerk war der deutschen Gartengeschichte bisher unbekannt. Durch Konkursverkauf der Dernathschen Besitzungen im Jahre 1730 gelangte die »Flora Exotica« über diverse illustre Zwischenbesitzer 1854 in die Sammlung der Botany Library des National History Museum in London. Der vorliegende Band macht eine Auswahl der schönsten Aquarelle, die als Spiegel der Blumenkultur in herrschaftlichen Gärten der ersten Hälfte des 18. Jahrhunderts von herausragender Bedeutung sind, wieder der Öffentlichkeit zugänglich. Zu den Herausgebern: Adrian von Buttlar. Seit 1985 Professor für Kunstgeschichte an der Universität in Kiel. Zahlreiche Publikationen zur Geschichte der Gartenkunst und Architektur im 18. und 19.Jahrhundert. Marie-Louise Gräfin von Plessen. Studium der Geschichte und Soziologie. Autorin und Regisseurin von Dokumentar- und Kurzfilmen sowie internationalen kunst- und kulturgeschichtlichen Ausstellungen samt Katalogen nach eigenen Konzepten. Zur Autorin: Helga de Cuveland. Freiberufliche Fachjournalistin im Bereich Naturwissenschaften und Botanik. Studium der Kunstgeschichte, Sozial- und Wirtschaftsgeschichte und Volkskunde an der Universität Hamburg. Promotion. Buchveröffentlichungen und zahlreiche Fachzeitschriftenbeiträge.

Great bedding at a great price!
Color: Tide Pool Blue, Size: King
I can’t believe how great this is for the price! Super soft, comfy and very warm. Perfect for wintertime. I don’t think I’d use it for other seasons…but it’s great right now.

Warm, soft, cozy… not very fluffy though
Color: Tide Pool Blue, Size: Full/Queen
I LOVE this comforter!! The color is beautiful, it’s super soft, it’s nice and warm, and it has a nice weight to it. I will say it isn’t as fluffy as it seems in the pictures, there doesn’t seem to be any filling between the 2 layers, and if there is, it’s minimal. It’s more like the thickness of a similar double sided throw blanket. It also has the tendency to grab any small debris which clings to it, but this is to be expected with this type of fabric. I would not recommend this comforter for pet owners as it will definitely be covered in hair and whatever else your furbabies may track in! Despite the lack of fluffiness and it constantly holding on to any loose thread or other random debris, I am still very happy with my purchase. Very good comforter for the price and it looks beautiful on the bed!!

I originally got the King set & loved it so much I ordered another in Queen size!
Color: Charcoal, Size: King
I didn't add a picture because the advertised picture is exactly what it looks like (and my beds not made at the moment, lol). It's so soft, comfortable, cosey and warm. It's thicker and fluffier than I expected, but still very lightweight. The price was great for a king size bed with 2 king sized pillow cases! I love it so much I ordered a second set in Queen size, just to have the cases for my smaller queen pillows that go in front of the King pillows and to have the extra blanket as a cozy throw. The only drawback is it does snag easily on rings, fingernails, etc. (also another reason I ordered the second one to lay across the places that I've snagged & a few that were already snagged when I got them). However, it's so cozy that I didn't want to go through the hassle of sending it back and having to wait for a new one! I'm very glad that it was suggested as an add on when I ordered the mattress pad & that I chose to add it on. I'd definitely recommend it to anyone!
