Synopsis

"Designs in Nature" reproduced 100 color plates created by Ernst Haekel (1834-1919). In the main, these were drawings of animals, sea creatures and shells - most of them seldom seen outside biology textbooks or museum exhibits. The same 100 plates have been rendered in black and white to create "Designs in Nature: The Coloring Book". Each is produced at the same size as the colored version and on a separate sheet to make coloring and removal of individual images easier.

About the Author:

Ernst Heinrich Philipp August Haeckel was born on February 16, 1834. He was a biologist, naturalist, philosopher, physician, and artist who discovered and named thousands of new species. He was a friend of Charles Darwin and promoted his work in Germany. Haeckel wrote The Evolution of Man and mapped a genealogical tree which traces the relationship between all life forms. His extraordinary artwork includes over 100 detailed illustrations, some of which have been published by Dover Publications in Art Forms in Nature from which the illustrations in this book have been licensed.
