Synopsis

This book selects more than 300 colorful butterfly illustrations hand-drawn by Hewitson, a British naturalist, collector, and illustrator in the 19th century. Hewitson was a wealthy collector who purchased rich and important natural history collections from travelers around the world. What's even more valuable is that he was also an outstanding illustrator, so his scientific drawings of insects have become undisputed treasures in entomological illustrations.

Reader comments

This book is great! The hand-drawn butterfly illustrations inside are so beautiful! The author William Hewitson is really amazing. He is not only a collector, but also an outstanding illustrator! When I saw his paintings, I thought of my uncle, who also likes to draw butterflies. Moreover, this book also contains a lot of scientific knowledge, and I learned a lot. I think this book is very valuable and worth reading!

Is There Any Material/reference Book for Designing Various Costumes for OC?

I would like to read a book similar to "500 Examples of Women's Clothing Style Design·Dress". Costumes, Lolita, etc. Are all available. The similar books I chose were actually written casually and I didn't read them carefully, but they were related to clothing. I wanted to see if there are any better and more convenient ones.
