Today, I am reminded of Judith Butler’s words in their letter on Executive Order 14168 @lrb.co.uk: ‘powers who promise to strip rights from the most vulnerable people in the name of saving the nation, the natural order, the family, society or civilisation itself’. A dark day for the UK.

Snapshots from the Alte Pinakothek’s Rachel Ruysch exhibition — up close, the technical precision and inclusion of specimens that created amazing depth in Ruysch’s work was tangible. Brilliantly contextualised, engaging with the work of her father, sister Anna, and sottobosco’s of Van Schriek.

This heavy 1652 folio Seneca volume has been repurposed as a makeshift herbarium, with the name of the flower noted in the margin. Dozens of flowers have been preserved, throughout the volume. In other cases, only the name of the plant remains. Here we have a plant sample of "Echinospermum lappula".
