Artisan Art Notebooks Temple of Flora: Tulips Notebook (Flame Tree Journals)

Artisan Art Notebooks, the new Journals from Flame Tree, come in a range of hues to suit the moment and are embellished with a wide variety of well-known art on their tactile, vegan leather covers. They’re carefully crafted with decorated page edges overflowing with petals, teasing vines and patterns. A unique blend of the practical and beautiful, with two ribbons and lined pages, the Artisan Art Notebooks are perfect for notes, creative writing, poetry, doodles and lists. And, with robust flexi covers, they’re easy to slip into your bag and a pleasure to use. Simply, they feel good! This notebook features the most famous image from Robert John Thornton’s New Illustration of the Sexual System of Carolus von Linnaeus (1799–1807). His book was comprised of three parts: a dissertation on the reproductive cycle of plants, an explanation of Linnaeus’ plant system, and ‘The Temple of Flora’. This third and final part was the most ambitious and has become instantly recognizable in its sumptuous illustrations, such as Tulips, which is an engraving by Richard Earlom after a painting by Philip Reinagle.
