Christian Egenolff’s 17thc herbal. Egenolff was a publisher, not a botanical writer, and pirated many of his works from other authors. It was written that there were none who had "more of the crassest errors than those published by Egenolff". #NationalGardeningWeek
Illustrations of Ebenezer Sibly, an 18thc physician, astrologer and occultist. Sibly was famed for his prediction of American independence, although he only published this 9 years after the event. Always a good trick to predict something after it has happened (a la #DerrenBrown)
There's an 18thC caricature for almost every occasion; we'd love to see some of your favourites/ go to images!

my two favourite portraits of Gregory the Great for his feast-day (he died #OnThisDay in 604):
1. the 10thC miniature by the so-called Master of the Registrum Gregorii : Trier, Stadtbibliothek MS 171/1626
2. the 10thC #ivory relief now in the Kunsthistorisches Museum in #Vienna.
Why not cwtch up with a classic this snowy #WorldBookDay? Did you know we have over a thousand 19th/20thC children's books to rediscover? #notjustforkids
