A botanical wall chart, depicting parts of Myrtus pimenta L. Hermann Zippel and Carl Bollmann were teaching in Gera, Germany during the 1930s. Zippel was a teacher of botany, and Bollmann was an artist of printmaking. Together, they produced hundreds of posters and wall charts, illustrating botanical species not yet familiar to Europeans at the time. Their work was published in the book 'Ausländische Kulturpflanzen in farbigen Wandtafeln mit erläuterndem Text', by publisher F. Vieweg & Sohn in Braunschweig, Germany.
