Description

Unleash your inner botanical diva with this Canna indica A5 notebook. Thornton's "Indian Reed" graces the cover like nature's own haute couture tattoo sleeve, ready to make your journaling sessions steamier than a Victorian greenhouse.

This spiral-bound temptress features the 19th-century plant paparazzo's most titillating subject - a scarlet-petaled showstopper that puts today's influencers to shame. Thornton, the original botanical Banksy, risked it all for this floral centerfold, bankrupting himself faster than you can say "photosynthesis."

Scribble your deepest desires on pages adorned with a flower so saucy, it would make even Venus flytraps blush. This notebook isn't just arm candy; it's a portable conversation igniter.

Whip it out at your next soirée and watch as guests debate whether Thornton's Canna could out-strut the queen of drag. Perfect for budding botanists, history buffs, or anyone who thinks their scribblings deserve a backdrop worthy of Mother Nature's boudoir.

About the Artist

Robert John Thornton, born in 1768, was an English physician and botanical artist best known for his monumental work, "The Temple of Flora." Educated at Cambridge, Thornton's passion for botany led him to create a collection that blended scientific precision with Romantic artistry. His magnum opus, part of "New Illustration of the Sexual System of Carolus von Linnaeus," features exotic flora set against dramatic backdrops, transforming botanical illustration into high art. Despite financial setbacks that curtailed his ambitious vision, Thornton's vivid engravings continue to captivate, standing as a testament to the intersection of science, art, and 18th-century horticultural passion.
