As naturalists on explorer Nicolas Baudin's voyages, Franois Pron and illustrator Charles-Alexandre Lesueur collected thousands of species, but both men became fascinated with jellyfish. Their work brought the known number of jellyfish species to 120 - over four times as many as had been documented previously. Lesueur's shimmering illustrations created one of the first, and most important, depictions of jellyfish in the world. This sumptuously presented publication is a pleasure for art-lovers and scientists alike.
