Haeckel Lithographs\Kunstformen_der_Natur

This is somewhat off topic, the link has nothing to do with paper models, but after seeing the images I had to share them. Ernst Haeckel was a 19th c. German biologist who published a book of lithographs of "Art Forms in Nature".



A description of the book and sample images from it are here:

Kunstformen der Natur - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia



A PDF of the book can be downloaded here, be warned it is a huge file.

The book contains only 100 of the thousands of illustrations Haeckel created during his life time. I apologize for the non paper model posting. I hope that you will enjoy the lithographs and perhaps be able to give them a new life in your own creations.
