Events December 2009

Through December 30, 2009

Dr. Charles E. Braker Orchid Photographs will be on exhibit in Bracken Library through December 30, 2009. This exhibit features the photographs of retired Purdue University professor Dr. Charles E. Braker. The photographs in this collection are the result of Bracker's passion for orchids and photography. Also showcased in this exhibit is the rare four volume edition of Reichenbachia, a 19th century series of books which contain color plates of orchids named after orchidologist, Heinrich Gustave Reichenbach. These books were published in two series, each volume dedicated to a particular queen or empress beginning with Queen Victoria and ending with the Queen of the Belgians. 300 of the top orchid images may also be found in the University Libraries Digital Media Repository.
