A handsome olive-green seaweed from one of the most beautiful natural-history books ever published in Britain, reproduced as a framed print ready to hang.
About the original
Between 1846 and 1851 the Irish botanist William Henry Harvey published Phycologia Britannica, a survey of every seaweed then known around the British coast. Its 360 hand-coloured plates were drawn from specimens collected on the shore, and they're still prized for their delicate detail and colour. We've reproduced the full plate, including its original lettering and plate number, on a soft cream mount so it looks as it did on the page.
