Enjoy in the rich beauty of the natural world with this delightful coloring book, with artworks based on the classic botanical illustrations by 17th century artist Alexander Marshal, published in association with The Royal Collection.

For Alexander Marshal (c.1620-82), the cultivation of rare plants was essential to the study of the natural world. His interest was stimulated by specimens imported to England from the Near East and the New World in the 17th century. Marshal was not a professional artist, but his florilegium - the only English flower book to survive from the period - contains some of the most beautiful plant studies in botanical art.

The 44 illustrations in this coloring book are from Marshal's florilegium, taken from the private art collection of the British royal family, The Royal Collection . These full-color plates are shown beside black and white versions to fill with color.

Features:
- Thick, high-quality paper to prevent bleed-through
- A key of full-color, thumbnail images to preview the designs
- Full-page prints of original full-color artwork to display

ABOUT THE SERIES: The Sirius Classic Nature Coloring series includes archival illustrations by some of history's most acclaimed naturalists, including Audubon, Pierre-Joseph Redoute and William Lizars. These original full-color illustrations are presented beside the black and white designs for reference and inspiration.

About the Author

Alexander Marshal (1620-1682) was an English entomologist, gardener and botanical artist. Some of his botanical artwork is now part of The Royal Collection, at the Royal Library at Windsor Castle. A selection of Marshal's works was shown at the "Amazing Rare Things: The Art of Natural History in the Age of Discovery" exhibition at The Queen's Gallery, Buckingham Palace, curated by David Attenborough.

The Royal Collection Trust oversees The Royal Collection of the British Royal family, the largest private art collection in the world. Owned by Her Majesty Elizabeth II, the collection is spread among 13 occupied and historic royal residences in the United Kingdom.
