Mushroom Botanical Art is a collection of mushroom and fungi paintings by European and Japanese naturalists such as Minakata Kumagusu from the 18th to 19th centuries. The paintings each show the fungi in their natural habitat and have been executed in a straightforward natural history illustration style with meticulous attention to detail. Beautiful color plate illustrations of each mushroom will attract both botanical art fans and lovers of mushrooms. It is pleasant to look at and appreciate the beauty of these mushrooms, also useful for your own drawing and painting.
