💁🏻‍♀️ TIL: 🦋📚 Designer Nicholas Rougeux has digitally restored over 1,300 color plates from the #19thcentury "Naturalist’s #Library," making them free to browse online. Originally published as affordable #Victorian-era volumes on global #flora and #fauna, the collection brought naturalist knowledge to a wide public. Rougeux used modern #restoration techniques and #AI tools to rebuild the archive for today’s audiences. 👉 https://www.openculture.com/2026/07/explore-1300-beautiful-wildlife-illustrations-from-the-19th-century.html #nature #vintage #illustration #wildlife #art #science #naturalhistory #history #arthistory #education #books #print #animals
