Maria Sibylla Merian is one of the world’s most important botanical artists. She was a true pioneer in both art and natural history.
Merian is best known for her illustrations of plants and insects and she was the first to record the process of metamorphosis – observing and recording the lifecycle of the butterfly in her publication ‘Metamorphosis Insectorum Surinamensium‘.
