More about the book
Jeanne Villepreux-Power, originally a dressmaker for Parisian aristocrats, found her true passion in marine life after moving to the seaside. Captivated by the ocean's mysteries, she meticulously documented her observations of various marine creatures, particularly the elusive argonaut. Her desire to study marine life more closely led her to create the world's first aquarium, a groundbreaking invention that significantly advanced scientific exploration and understanding of ocean ecosystems.
