One of the most famous Cabinet of Curiosities was that of Dutch apothecary Albertus Seba, who spent decades collecting specimens. He then hired artists to make illustrations of it that were published in his book 'Locupletissimi rerum naturalium thesauri.' https://t.co/RWjkQYxevH

Albertus Seba’s "Thesaurus" (1734) includes many real creatures and some fantastic beasts, such as this two-headed deer and the infamous Hamburg Hydra (the “specimen” was later recognized by Carl Linneaus as being a fake sewn together from snake and weasel parts).
