Her intricate artwork captures not only the beauty but also the volume of these winged creatures, showcasing their vibrant colors and fragile wings. Moving on from butterflies, we encounter a plethora of volumes in nature's bounty. Nerine presents us with six varieties, each displaying its unique shape and size. Protea follows suit with seven varieties, reminding us that diversity comes in different dimensions. But they are not limited to nature alone; they find their way into everyday life as well. Advertisements for Lifebuoy Soap and Pears Soap transport us back to Victorian times when cleanliness was paramount. These vintage ads remind us how soap could transform our lives while emphasizing the importance of hygiene in maintaining healthy lifestyles. Flipping through pages filled with Victorian adverts from 1890 reveals a world bustling with commerce and innovation.
