"A rare and beautiful selection of works handpicked from the vast archives of London's Natural History Museum." ""The book's greatest contribution is to showcase the work of the artists who, usually under very difficult circumstances, so brilliantly served science and opened Western eyes to new worlds."" - School Library Journal (on the original edition) Voyages of Discovery is a mesmerizing visual survey of the most significant discoveries in the history of natural science exploration. Superb artwork and photographs spanning three centuries document landmark advances made in the field and bring to life the fascinating stories of the explorers, naturalists, artists and photographers. The book is fully illustrated in color with informative text and captions. Highlights include: Sir Hans Sloane's 1687 voyage to Jamaica, where he collected and recorded plant specimens, including cocoa, which are preserved to this day Maria Sybilla Merian's personal journey to Surinam in 1699, where in brilliant detail she recorded butterflies and exotic insects Charles Darwin's fateful trip to the Galapagos Islands, on which he cataloged finches and fossils William Bartram's fanciful documentation of North American wildlife Matthew Flinders' mapping of Australia, where he was accompanied by Ferdinand Bauer, perhaps the greatest of all natural science artists. The Natural History Museum in London has the world's most comprehensive collection of natural science specimens and artworks. Voyages of Discovery offers readers a privileged opportunity to explore that collection.

“我黎明即起,喝杯咖啡以后,便驾船起航追逐群鸟。我在十点用早餐,然后在十点到下午三点之间全神贯注钻研昆虫学。下午则忙着进行标本保存与储藏的工作。”曾于19世纪中期与华莱士一同在南美洲进行过博物学考察的贝茨后来在他的书里这样写道。这是博物学家的一天,也许在文艺...

评分《发现之旅》属于那种每个人的书架都应该放上一本的书,它不仅内容老少咸宜——既是自然史科普,又是素描课欣赏——而且长得实在太美了。 全书收录了超过300幅来自于伦敦自然史博物馆的珍藏画作,鳀梨果树、秋葵、甘蕉、皇蛾、啄木鸟、鹤嘴翠鸟、孔雀、长尾巨松鼠、企鹅、海豹...
评分这是一本让人惊艳的书,它像一首长诗一样,以自己独特的方式歌颂了自然的美好与丰富,庄严与神奇。在一个春寒未消的午后,它带我进入17世纪末到19世纪末的那些浪漫的人类探险之旅,跟随着航向牙买加的船队,转而探索锡兰,漫游北美洲,横跨太平洋……在汉斯.斯隆爵士、保罗.赫...
