$ 21.95
The greatest botanical illustrators throughout the history of the genre are presented in this fascinating and beautifully-printed survey. Beginning with the ancient Egyptians, plants, flowers, and herbs have been the subject of the artist's attention. Author Lys de Bray explains why skilled botanical art is better -- and of more use to posterity -- than the best photographs.
