Der Einband scheint gering fleckig, vielleicht ist das aber auch Reproduktion. Innen sauber. --- Inhalt: dreisprachig deutsch, englisch, französisch --At a time when few women were educated or literate - and rarely travelled - German-born naturalist and artist Maria Sibylla Merian (1647-1717) made history with her studies of insects in Surinam. Trained as a copperplate engraver and watercolorist, she documented the metamorphosis of butterflies, laying the foundation for modern entomology. What Merian observed when breeding native species of butterfly triggered her curiosity, and spurred her to further investigation the development from ovum, via larva and chrysalis, to adult butterfly was not fully understood in the 17th century. And not every pupa developed into a butterfly, which puzzled Merian for a long time. TASCHENs reprint of a hand-colored first edition copy includes the complete plates with a commentary by Katharina Schmidt-Loske. Merian accomplished a pioneering achievement of the modern age. This publication pays homage to her work and offers readers an opportunity to appreciate her sumptuous engravings., DE, [SC: 4.00], gebraucht gut, gewerbliches Angebot, [GW: 1600g], ohne Angabe zur Auflage Lagerfach PS6-1, Banküberweisung, PayPal, Internationaler Versand<
