Butterflies of the soul

Bishop Hill in Books

I chanced upon this page of images from a book of scientific illustrations - images like the one below. I thought they were rather lovely.

I love the intricacy of it. Look at the detail...

It's hard for someone as artistically challenged as myself to comprehend the skill that produces such an amazing piece of work.

 

 

The book has the delightful title of Cajal's Butterflies of the Soul and is published by OUP.
