Join us on a journey through Flora Borinqueniana!
Para la Naturaleza, the National Endowment for the Humanities and the Museum of History, Anthropology and Art of the University of Puerto Rico invite you to the exhibition Flora borinqueniana: three centuries of botanical illustrations. This journey through the development of botanical knowledge in Puerto Rico is interwoven with the country's cultural and political history, and its intersection with science. Botanical illustrations created by six naturalists from the 18th, 19th and 20th centuries are the starting point of this exhibition.
