By Brandy Watts



This volume represents an important selection of 116 photographs from a
specific window of time and place as viewed through the camera lens of one
of the greatest botanists of all time. Ms. Watts has curated an impressive
collection of images that not only serve to document Dr. Liogier's research
but bring to light the unique way this particular scientist saw the world
of plants in their environment. As Ms. Watts states, "Each photograph is an
instant within diverging and overlapping trajectories: plant science
research, photographic technology, plant species adaptation, habitat
transformation, land conservation, climate change, a particular botanist’s
research, and an individual’s lifetime." If you are interested in where
science and fine art merge, then this book is for you.
