More about the book

The book presents findings from a doctoral thesis exploring the history and epistemology of scientific illustrations, developed with support from the Swiss National Science Foundation. It incorporates theoretical concepts from Gerd Graßhoff, particularly regarding optimizing scientific illustrations. Key chapters discuss the model concept and hand-coloring techniques. The research utilized archival material, primarily from the University Library Göttingen, and includes previously published articles that contribute to the overall analysis of scientific imagery.
