Wine bottle and the work of Maria Sibylla

Browsed in http://www.thedieline.com  seeing a design for one wine label and then spotted another pretty ones for Christobel’s.

The idea for these label is to reflect the memory of Christobel who was passionate about flowers. And the illustration were inspired by the work of Maria Sibylla Merian, a pioneering woman of art in the 1600s. Below are some example of her work —Gorgeous!
