Synopsis
Excerpt from Autumnal Leaves
It is a singular circumstance that, with all the resources which art possesses in the present day, and in view, especially, of the wealth of illustra tion that has been brought into requisition in the endeavour to reproduce the flowers of the field,' no one should have attempted to reproduce the blossoms of Autumn as represented by autumnal leaves. The neglect, in a literary and pictorial sense, of this most fascinating branch of natural science is doubtless only accidental, and it does not arise from any lack of appreciation of the subject. But the fact remains that, rich as this subject is in itself, and full as it is of attraction for the lovers of Nature, it has, by pictorial art, in the especial phase in which it is here represented, been wholly overlooked.
Merely general references - such as may be found abundantly both in poetry and prose - to the glory and beauty of Autumn.

Seller rating 5 out of 5 stars
Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book takes the reader on a journey through the New Forest, a region of England known for its beauty and its rich history. The author, a keen observer of nature, invites you to experience the captivating changes of the forest landscape as autumn arrives. Through detailed descriptions of trees, foliage, and streams, the author weaves a tapestry of colours and textures, bringing the beauty of the season to life. This book is not just about the New Forest; it is also a meditation on the enduring relationship between nature and humanity. The author's lyrical prose celebrates the enduring power of the natural world to inspire awe and wonder, and his insights into the way nature influences human lives are as relevant today as they were when he first wrote them. The author's close observation of the forest's changing hues and textures offer a unique perspective on the way that natureââ â¢s rhythms, especially those marked by the changing seasons, reveal a hidden beauty that is often overlooked. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item. Seller Inventory # 9781332320349_0
