Discover the creative process behind polished botanical artworks in this revealing collection of artists' sketchbooks. While finished drawings and paintings are a frequent sight in galleries, the work leading up to these projects is often left unseen or forgotten.
Botanical Sketchbooks brings these personal records back into the light in a series of biographical portraits organized thematically into four sections. This book illuminates a range of intriguing characters from around the world, giving a behind-the-scenes look at the works we treasure for their scientific importance and beauty.
Helen Bynum and William Bynum are the authors of Botanical Sketchbooks (2017, revised 2023). Helen is a lecturer, writer, speaker and editor who has a PhD in the History of Medicine from University College London. William is a writer and reviewer from TLS, The Wall Street Journal and Nature. He also works as the Science and Society editor of Wiley Blackwell online.
