But the absolute star of the evening was the first-ever retrospective of the work of #RachelRuysch and her mesmerizing still lives.

It runs through December 7, and you absolutely must see it: www.mfa.org/exhibition/r...

One of my favorite things I saw while I was in Boston was the Rachel Ruysch (1664–1750) exhibition at the MFA. As a flower, insect, and book enthusiast it was a dreamy experience.

If you're in the Boston/New England area, I highly recommend the Rachel Ruysch exhibition going on at the Museum of Fine Arts.

It feels like magic, and also has specimens from @harvard alongside her work.

Seeing these works in person was sheer joy: no reproduction can ever capture their true vibrancy, intimacy, or the quiet awe they inspire.

Here's some of the most mesmerizing moments.
