"Carolus Linnaeus 1707-78 in his Lapland Dress" is a portrait of the renowned Swedish botanist, physician, and zoologist Carl Linnaeus, painted by the artist Martin Hoffman. The painting is significant for its depiction of Linnaeus dressed in traditional Sami clothing, reflecting his journey to Lapland in 1732. This expedition was a pivotal moment in Linnaeus's career, as it led to the publication of his work "Flora Lapponica," in which he documented the plant life of the Lapland region and laid the groundwork for his later taxonomic classification system.

The portrait captures Linnaeus in a moment of scholarly pursuit, surrounded by the flora and fauna he studied, and is often noted for its detailed representation of the Lapland dress, which Linnaeus wore out of respect for the local culture and practicality during his exploration of the harsh Arctic environment. The artwork serves not only as a tribute to Linnaeus's contributions to the field of natural science but also as a historical record of the cultural and scientific exchange between Linnaeus and the indigenous Sami people.

Hoffman's painting is an important visual document that encapsulates the spirit of 18th-century scientific exploration and Linnaeus's enduring legacy as the "father of modern taxonomy." The portrait is held in high esteem for its artistic merit and its role in celebrating the life and achievements of one of history's most influential scientists.
