This set of three A5, softback notebooks with high-quality ruled paper features three designs, using butterfly paintings by William Jones from the collection of the Oxford University Museum of Natural History. An exquisite gift for nature lovers and writers alike.
Jones' Icones is a stunning six-volume manuscript containing paintings of some of the most important butterfly and moth collections from the end of the eighteenth century. It is the work of William Jones (1745-1818), a wealthy wine merchant from Chelsea who, upon retirement, devoted the rest of his life to studying and painting butterflies and moths.
Held in the archives of the Oxford University Museum of Natural History, the volumes contain over 1,500 ink and gouache paintings representing 760 species from around the world. Work continues to this day to determine whether all the original specimens depicted still survive.
This set of three A5, softback notebooks with high-quality ruled paper makes an exquisite gift for nature lovers and writers alike.
