My favourite gallery collection that I would absolutely kill to see is the Glass Flowers exhibit at the Harvard Museum of Natural History with pieces made by Leopold and Rudolph Blaschka in the late 1800's to early 1900's. In particular, it not only contains hundreds of fully accurate glass plant and flower models, but it also contains depictions of various plant diseases, fungi, and fungal spores! As a plant pathologist it's incredible how accurate and gorgeous these pieces are and I am in awe. I've seen folks post the sea creatures and the flowers themselves made by the Blaschkas, but I think it's important to highlight these incredible specimens as well. Hosts and diseases are attached in the alt text.
