Detected positive to Covid in 2021 despite having no symptoms, Jan Schlegel soon realized that he would have to keep his mind busy while staying home in quarantine. With the flower bouquets of the Vienna's Albertina Museum in mind, which he had visited shortly before, he turned this time into an opportunity. In addition to his platinum prints, he decided to purchase a 8’x10’ Kodak Portra and managed to put his hand on what were probably the very last 15 Polaroids 809, all of which had expired 20 years ago at least.

Reflecting on the evanescence of life, these unique snapshots illustrate the evolution of the time through the withering process of flowers.

En 2021, Jan Schlegel fut détecté positif au Covid malgré l'absence de symptômes. Soumis à une période de quarantaine, il lui sembla essentiel de garder son esprit actif. Ayant visité l'Albertina Museum de Vienne peu de temps avant, il gardait en mémoire les nombreuses peintures de bouquets de fleurs qu'il avait pu y admirer.

En complément à ses tirages platinum, il fit l'acquisition d'un appareil Kodak Potra 8'x10' et parvint à mettre sa main sur ce que l'on peut raisonnablement considérer comme étant parmi les derniers exemplaires de pellicule Polaroid 809; tous ayant expiré depuis une vingtaine d'année au moins.

Réflexions imagées sur l'evanescence de la vie, ces instantanés uniques illustrent le passage du temps à travers le processus de dépérissement des fleurs.
