Synopsis
Artist Iselin celebrates the diversity and beauty of nature with her exquisite portraits of seashells. Like her extremely popular "Beach Stones" and "Leaves & Pods," this is an artful and informative portrayal of a beloved part of the natural world., Artist Josie Iselin celebrates the diversity and beauty of nature with her exquisite portraits of seashells. Like her extremely popular Beach Stones and Leaves & Pods, Seashells is not a field guide but an artful and informative portrayal of a beloved part of our natural world. While it draws upon unparallelled shell collections, Seashells balances the exotic with the familiar, from tropical corals and rare fossils to everyday clamshells and barnacles. As in her previous books, Iselin arranges these precious natural objects into striking images, which she produces on a flatbed scanner. In her introduction and captions, marine geologist and paleontologist, Sandra J. Carlson introduces the reader to seashells in all their variety, explaining why they look as they do. Both an art book and a contemplation of nature, Seashells combines aesthetic delight in natural things with scientific fact and philosophical wonder., Artist Josie Iselin celebrates the diversity and beauty of nature with her exquisite portraits of seashells.

Item description from the seller
Seller feedback (61,828)
- a***m (103)- Feedback left by buyer.Past monthVerified purchaseIn my 25 years of audio purchases, I have NEVER seen such quality packaging. Grills removed, surrounded by wrap and boxed separately, drivers covered with cardboard and gaffer tape, speaker corners protected with styrofoam. ASTOUNDING job to ensure I received my fairly priced item as described. I was truly impressed, so much that I'll follow their sales from now on. It is SO VERY RARE to get items shipped properly. Hats off to this seller. Sincerely, one happy customer.
