Lakeside Dwelling (Habitation lacustre) is a 1878 oil painting by Emmanuel Benner (1836-1896). It is now in the Musée des Beaux-Arts de Mulhouse. Its inventory number is D.62.1.23.[2][3]
The painting was displayed at the 1878 Paris Salon under the more specific title Une famille lacustre, au lac de Bienne (Suisse),[4] i. e. A Family of Lake Dwellers, by Lake Biel (Switzerland). It is one of several Prehistory-themed paintings made by Benner. Discoveries made around Lake Zurich in 1854 had popularized the (now discredited) scientific image of ancient populations living in stilt houses built on Swiss lakes. In reality, these populations mostly lived on the shores.[1]

Well, that’s interesting to know that Psilotum nudum are known as whisk ferns. Psilotum nudum is the commoner species of the two. While the P. flaccidum is a rare species and is found in the tropical islands. Both the species are usually epiphytic in habit and grow upon tree ferns. These species may also be terrestrial and grow in humus or in the crevices of the rocks.
