Overview

This is the fascinating story of Martin Lister's great work on shells and molluscs, 'Historiae Conchyliorum'; its illustrations (over 1,000 copperplates) by his daughters, Susanna and Anna, and the early techniques behind scientific illustration together with the often unnoticed role of women in the scientific revolution.
