During the age of exploration, European scientists studied exotic items brought back on seafaring trading vessels. This wonderful image is based on a page from a French textbook from the 1600's on the history and biology of shells. Skilled artists have added images of shells in the classic scientific style of the late Renaissance. This exquisite work is printed on high grade acid-free stock and then hand drawn and colored. This piece is sure to be a family favorite for years to come. Acid-free stock. Hand drawn and colored detail. Unframed art. 16 1/4" wide. 21 3/4" high.
