I do think old books are beautiful in their own right, but it's much easier to make audiences gasp with wonder when your slides are filled with images from/by Seba, Audubon, Merian, Gould, Scott, Shaw, Curtis, Bartholomew, Becker, etc. Sigh.

While John Gould was primarily an ornithologist, he did also publish a monograph on Kangaroos. Gould was an accomplished illustrator, as was his wife Elizabeth (with whom he produced many of the illustrations in his works). https://t.co/m6diwJElhM

James has just finished photographing volume 1 of Gould's 'Birds of Asia', and the images are just incredible! It was very difficult choosing just a couple to share with you, so expect a few more later...
