Summary
The stunning prints on this range of notebooks have been sourced from the archives of London's Natural History Museum. Albertus Seba's Locupletissimi Rerum Naturalium Thesauri (accurate description of the very rich thesaurus of the principal and rarest natural objects) reveals the fusion of art and science at its most extraordinary. Internationally renowned in the 18th century, Albertus Seba's collections and his books still have a significant influence on present day scientific study and engagement. The four-volume work contained 400 illustrated plates as a means of showcasing his collections.
