This Book is a useful and beautiful compilation of very detailed vintage flora
Reviewed in the United States on July 17, 2023

I ordered this book as a source of watercolor inspiration. The art in this book is very well-detailed, and has a beautiful illustrative effect. I've used several of the illustrations as "Mentor Paintings" as I am an intermediate artist hoping to improve my inspiration and skills. I would recommend this book to anyone who wants to have a great reference for botanicals to draw ideas from. It does not have a table of contents or index, but the plants are displayed in order of some categorization and there are captions indicating the taxonomic species, for reference. I've included two of my sketchbook studies using this book as a reference.

Gorgeous, high res images!
Reviewed in the United States on January 5, 2020
Verified Purchase
I love these gorgeous, high res vintage images. They come in full-page (8.5"x11") and 4 to a page sizes. Perfect for my needs.

My only complaint is that, because I use them in collages, I wish the images were only on one side (and the other side was blank). There are so many times when I want to use images from both sides of the book, but I have to choose one over the other. That's hard, because the images are are beautifully curated!

Otherwise, this would be a 5 star rating!

Interesting variety of flowers and plants
Reviewed in the United States on October 11, 2024

I was looking for a good variety of flowers and plants for inspiration in my art work. This book was exactly what I wanted and I have already created some abstract drawings, and then plan to turn into paintings, based upon this book. I also downloaded the images into Procreate for further art creation. The downloads were very clear and I was pleasantly surprised at the variety and quality. I loved the pages on mushrooms and cactus for some interesting variety,

Botanically correct illustrations for paintings or inspirations on any medium
Reviewed in the United States on November 17, 2019

I had purchased this book for my girlfriend, who is a sugar artist @sugaralkymi and here is her tesmonials and review in her own words:
IF you are looking for amazing VINTAGE botanical illustrations, look no further. The title is totally capturing it's content. I'm absolutely in love with their clear, colorful and simply beautiful imageries. As an artist, I'm constanlty in search of new inspirations and one of my key elements in designing is to be able to use images that are botanical and Copyright free - not only this ensemble provides these platforms, it also provides the plant's name description (in latin). I was at first skeptical to order this book, since I had come across of their content on instagram and you can't trust much of online advertising but now I can attest for the value you get, this one is a steal! - Also a note in regard to image layouts: depending on the design of the plant, most of the smaller images come 4 in one page, some in half page, and quite few in full page. You also get a digital version which is HEAVENLY to have access to! A must have for any artist- Sahar

The book is a very nice quality and the illustrations are beautiful. However, if you want to use the digital download, you have to sign up for an another online product. The publishers should make that clear in the description.

Sehr schöne Auswahl und hervorragende Qualität
Reviewed in Germany on April 20, 2020

Dies ist schon mein 4. Buch von vault. Ich bin mit allen Büchern sehr zufrieden, aber dieses hier ist fast das schönste. Die Illustrationen sind vielfältig, hochauflösend und abwechslungsreich. Die Tatsache, dass mit jedem Buch ein digitaler Download Link kommt, mit welchem man die Inhalte schnell und unkompliziert downloaden kann, macht die Bücher für Interessierte, Künstler und Graphiker nur noch attraktiver. Übrigens ist hier auch der Kundenservice exzellent und blitzschnell.

Fazit: absolute Kaufempfehlung.

Illustrations petites mais plutôt jolies
Reviewed in France on January 18, 2022
Verified Purchase
Certes, ce livre présente de nombreuses illustrations mais la plupart des pages sont composées de 4 images ; les illustrations en pleine page sont rares. Je suis donc un peu déçue. En revanche, le fait que l'on puisse télécharger l'intégralité des planches (265 images au format jpeg) est un super bonus. C'était la raison principale pour laquelle j'avais choisi cet article. Malheureusement, de nombreuses illustrations présentent une qualité qui ne répond plus aux standards actuels : ce sont des reproductions d'anciennes planches, ce qui les rend difficiles à imprimer au format A4 (format A3 quasi impossible) au risque de perdre en qualité. Le format carte postale est plus indiqué pour l'impression de la majorité des images présentes dans ce livre.
