At the young age of thirteen, Maria Sibylla Merian had already begun her systematic entomological research with a study of the silk worm, a description of which opens her second book, entitled Der Raupen wunderbare Verwandlung ... (The Caterpillar's Wondrous Metamorphosis ...). Motivated by reports on the flora and fauna of Surinam published by missionaries of the pietistic Labadist church, which she joined in 1685, she undertook a perilous journey to the tropics. Following her return home, she had her insect studies - life-sized drawings of insects on parchment - engraved in copper, adding descriptions of each species and its habitat. Four editions of these large-format engravings were published between 1719 and 1771. The epochal accomplishment of the painter, engraver and naturalist Maria Sibylla Merian is to be found in the artistic perfection of her presentation of the results of meticulous entomological research, decades before the appearance of Linné's Systema Naturae in 1735. Following the seminal studies by Elisabeth Rücker, this publication is the first comprehensive monograph on the work of Maria Sibylla Merian. It focuses not only on her artistic and scientific achievements but on her role as a publisher and entrepreneur as well. New material on the life and work of this extraordinary artist is provided in the form of unpublished letters and 40 previously unpublished water-colors from her St. Petersburg sketchbook. (German edition available ISBN 3-7757-1226- 7) The artist: Maria Sibylla Merian (Frankfurt a.M., 1647; Amsterdam, 1717). Daughter of the publisher Matthäus Merian. Trained in art by her stepfather, the still-life painter Jakob Marrel. First series of copper engravings of flower motifs as a book of models in 1675; Volume I of Der Raupen wunderbare Verwandlung und sonderbare Blumennahrung (The Caterpillar's Wondrous Metamorphosis and Strange Flower Nourishment); journey to Surinam (Dutch Guyana) in 1679; first edition of Metamorphosis Insectorum Surinamensium published in 1705.Shipping Notes

⚠️PLEASE READ⚠️
Color: White
This mouse is great but, if you were planning on hooking it up to an iPad or tablet or some kind it will work but, if you’re trying to play a game or something it’s not the best like if you’re trying to play Roblox I doesn’t work because Roblox doesn’t support keyboard and mouse on iOS. BENEFITS this mouse is lightweight, it’s very easy to hook up to devices, it’s very comfortable and smooth but, it’s a little small for me but besides that it’s GREAT. The mouse also looks clean and professional if you’re ever trying to brag😂. It’s also very compatible with all the devices I’ve tried I hope this review was helpful.

Great bluetooth mouse, easy connectivity and long battery life
Color: Graphite
I really do like this mouse, the price is great, the bluetooth connection is a great newer technology that I love, so nice not to have to worry about a dongle that can get lost, or can occupy a USB port you need for something else! This connects quickly and easily, does NOT take hardly any time to wake up (like some wireless mouse!), and is reliable. It's also fantastic this does not require charging and apparently the battery lasts like a year? So great. Only down side, the reason for 4 stars is the click is pretty loud. My old mouse had a lot of problems that were solved by this one but the click was very quiet so the sound of this one can be annoying.

Stopped Working
Color: White
Awesome little mouse that works great with my MacBook. I will say that the battery only lasted 6 months, not a year, but that's not a deal breaker for me. This is still a 5-star product. Smooth scrolling, comfortable in my hand, no glitchy-ness or functional issues at all. Thanks Logitech.
