A bit cheaper than the Codex Lichtenstein! This has some of his pencil sketches with the number coded color notes on them, part of his system for getting information down in the field to be painted up later.Elisabethhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09627772096483104687noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20645140.post-11203612209819203662009-03-27T22:25:00.000+00:002009-03-27T22:25:00.000+00:00The Flora Graeca is stunning, thanks so greatful t...The Flora Graeca is stunning, thanks so greatful to you much for providing the link.

I come across so many books which are out of print and only available second-hand.Making A Markhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13509483023337008890noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20645140.post-30482784608664069172009-03-26T18:03:00.000+00:002009-03-26T18:03:00.000+00:00Ha, ha, I just saw the price of a used copy of the...Ha, ha, I just saw the price of a used copy of the Coxex Liechtenstein!

I had tears in my eyes when I realised how far I could zoom in on the detail of those incredible paintings. <BR/><BR/>I think I'll nominate you as a Dame for services to Art History - I just wish the title didn't remind me of Guys and Dolls ;)Robyn Sinclairhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01663604160297996421noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20645140.post-92064957412120951462009-03-26T16:10:00.000+00:002009-03-26T16:10:00.000+00:00I think there's proabbly very few artists who coul...I think there's proabbly very few artists who could ever come close to emulating their work! <BR/><BR/>There's an awful lot of us sitting in the 'enjoyment' camp! :)Making A Markhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13509483023337008890noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20645140.post-21791043364742489192009-03-26T15:31:00.000+00:002009-03-26T15:31:00.000+00:00I'm so glad you realize your resource site is for ...I'm so glad you realize your resource site is for "those who enjoy botanical art and natural history" as well as artists who actually possess the talent and self discipline to produce these wonderful drawings and paintings.Charlene Brownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13845504349975059383noreply@blogger.com
