Ernst Haeckel (1834-1919) was a biologist, philosopher and artist from Germany.  His artwork looks like it came right out of a Jules Verne novel. The book shows a variety of flora and fauna from teh sead, from  the sea-including microscopic Radiolaria, starfish and jelly fish.

This beautiful book will be treasured for years.
