Basilisk, Dragon, Hydra - Exceptionally rare engraved and hand-coloured print by Merian & Jonston from "Historiae naturalis de serpentibus et draconibus libri II" published in 1657 in Amsterdam.

John Jonston, or Joannes Jonstonus (1603 – 1675) was a Polish scholar and physician, descended from Scottish nobility and closely associated with the Polish magnate family of the Leszczyńskis. He earned his first degree at the University of St Andrews and then worked as a private tutor in Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth, and continued his studies in Cambridge, Frankfurt, Franeker and Leiden. Jonston has published major natural history studies including Thautomatographia naturalis and Theatrum universale omnium animalium, piscium, avium, quadrupedum, exanguium aquaticorum, insectorum et angium.

Matthäus Merian der Ältere (1593 – 1650) was a Swiss-born engraver who worked in Frankfurt for most of his career, where he also ran a publishing house. Born in Basel, Merian learned the art of copperplate engraving in Zürich. He next worked and studied in Strasbourg, Nancy, and Paris, before returning to Basel in 1615. The following year he moved to Frankfurt, Germany where he worked for the publisher Johann Theodor de Bry, who was the son of renowned engraver and traveler Theodor de Bry. Early in his life, he had created detailed town plans in his unique style. With Martin Zeiler, a German geographer, and later with his own son, he produced a Topographia Germaniae in 38 parts. After Merian's death, his sons Matthaus Jr and Caspar continued publishing of Topographia Germaniae and Theatrum Europaeum. It includes numerous town plans and views, as well as maps of most countries and a World Map - it was such a popular work that it was re-issued in many editions. He also took over and completed the later parts and editions of the Grand Voyages and Petits Voyages, originally started by de Bry in 1590. He was also noted for the finesse of his alchemical illustrations.

It’s so invisible
So basically, I am 15 I accidentally went to my school in these but during free period my friend told me I was so embarrassed because at that point all the moisture became out of it and it was very visible. It’s not a bad product just to make sure to take it off before school/work.

Skin care for Mature Skin
I have Mature skin. I have tried many products to no avail. These 3 Korean products did my skin wonders on day 1. My very favorite is the Oil Cleaner. 2 are the toner pads that have Collagen Peptides and Rice Water. They're thin and you really can place them on your face like a sheet mask. Amazing! 3 the Pore Minimizer Serum shrank the large pores on each side of my nose. It leaves my skin So Pretty that I don't wear makeup but on special occasions. The price is a steal also.
