Items related to Collection Specimens Of The Kyoto University Museum...
Opening this book is like peering into a cabinet of curiosities, a glass-encased world of specimens, where all manner of creatures have been meticulously preserved, arranged and classified. Entire drawers of pinned insects, a menagerie of threadbare rodents, sharks as dried husks, speckled assortments of eggs, flattened and brittle plants, lovingly wrapped birds, eerily floating reptiles, tiny skulls in glass jars, and myriad boxes of colourful minerals, shells and fossils, all with delicate, handwritten tags... the immense culmination of decades of scientific inquiry, beautifully photographed, categorised and presented in more than 150 full-colour pages.
