Mineralogy Illustrations Sorted By Colour
“When Nicholas Rougeux came across the massive collection of mineral illustrations that British naturalist and illustrator James Sowerby created at the beginning of the 19th century, he wondered what they would look like arranged by colour in a big collage. And, well, he spent the next four months doing exactly that: arranging all of Sowerby’s illustrations from the 718-plates-strong series British Mineralogy containing minerals found within Great Britain and Exotic Mineralogy containing those from beyond its borders.”
