Anna Atkins
Anna Atkins- 1799-1871, was a British Botanist. She was the first to use photography (the camera-less cyanotype photograms) to record botanic specimens, creating a book in 1843 called British Algae: Cyanotype Impressions
Iam interested in this way of recording and capturing organic specimens and would like to do something similar. I like how feminine these prints are in their delicate and aesthetic arrangements.
