Poster with an old fashioned scientific illustration Oken Naturalia created by the German naturalist Lorenz Oken. At the top of the picture is the word Hecht which is German and means "pikes". Below we see several different types of pikes.
Oken was a German naturalist, philosopher and physician who was born Okenfuss, but adopted the name Oken during his medical training in Freiburg, Bavaria.
After being professor of medicine at the University of Jena, he turned to philosophy and natural science. Oken became a leading figure as editor of the influential, and sometimes controversial, journal Isis, where he was active for almost 30 years.
Oken was known for his prolific writing and published many philosophical treatises during his lifetime. His most famous work is the 13-volume series "Naturgeschichte für alle Stände" (Natural history for all walks of life), first published in 1831.

We deliver worldwide and always offer free shipping! Depending on which country you are shipping to, the delivery may mean that certain customs fees and taxes are added - there is no duty or tax on deliveries within, for example, the EU, USA or Norway.
The delivery time is normally 1-3 working days within the Nordic region, 2-5 to the rest of Europe and 3-8 working days in other parts of the world. As for canvas paintings, we make them by hand in our factory in Sweden.
The canvas needs to dry before we stretch them on a wooden frame and send them to you. The delivery time for a canvas painting is therefore approximately 7 working days within the Nordic countries, slightly longer to other countries.
If you order from Norway, your order will be delivered with Fedex, to Sweden and other parts of the world with DHL. Your package is normally delivered to your nearest agent!
