Natural History Illustrations
:::Bibliomaniac is as best I can tell, a Japanese site devoted to displaying 19th century natural history book illustrations. The site includes modest collections of insects, animals, flowers, birds and sea creatures among others. They range from the beautiful to the freaky. There are a couple of pages of not quite so natural histories as well.

My fave I think.
-
Beautiful!

Very handsome, peacay. Even though illustrations of bees are sadly lacking.

"Very handsome, peacay." Aww shucks. *blush*

...shucks ...the corn is as high as an elephant's eye.... ;]
-
many yellow curvy fruits for peacay

These are very good. I recently purchased a good photo printer and have been looking for little pictures to frame and put about the place, some of these will do nicely.

Lovely stuff, thanks peacay.
