A corner of an old library features rows of tall wooden specimen shelves reaching from floor to ceiling. The shelves are a deep, dark brown, giving them a sense of stateliness, and behind glass doors are stored dried and pressed flower specimens. Withered plants—roses, thistles, ferns, and eucalyptus—are carefully fixed to worn paper, with handwritten labels bearing their scientific names in ink. The specimens have faded to browns and grays, and the petals are thin and translucent. An old wooden stepladder rests in front of the shelves, on top of which rests an open botanical guide. Soft natural light streams in through the window, illuminating the specimen shelves from an angle and reflecting off the glass doors. Dust floating in the air is visible in the light, creating an atmosphere of tranquility, as if time has stopped. The colors are deep green, sepia, off-white, and black. The medium shot captures the entire shelf while revealing the details of the specimens. This shot evokes a vintage natural history style, a nostalgic and scholarly beauty.
