Species Klenzea lycopodioides

Possibly for Leo von Klenze (Franz Karl Leopold von Klenze) (1784–1864), German architect, painter, draughtsman, art collector and writer. After completing his architectural studies and apprenticeship, he became court architect to Jérôme Bonaparte, King of Westphallia (1808–1813) and to Bavarian King Ludwig I, from 1816. He designed, inter alia, many neoclassical buildings – temples, museums, galleries – in Munich and Regensberg, submitted plans for the restoration of the Acropolis in Athens, Greece, and designed the New Hermitage public museum in St Petersburg, Russia. Klenze’s collection of contemporary German painters is now housed in the Neue Pinakothek Museum in Munich.
