Anna Atkins was an English scientist, illustrator and arguably the first person to publish a book illustrated exclusively through a photographic technique – cyanotype. Using this method, she created intricate images of ferns, grasses and other plants in striking shades of blue. Rediscovered in modern times, this blueprint method captivates with its detailed and delicate imagery. Discover Atkins’ remarkable botanical world in vivid blue tones and bring it to your home, for example, as a framed art print.
