Nature Conservancy: Vintage-Style Botanical Posters

April 17, 2015

Darwin would approve. Joí£o and Raquel, an artist couple in Porto, Portugal, with a collecting bent and a letterpress studio, have begun reproducing their own versions of antique educational wall charts of flora and fauna–much like the one in today’s House Call. Their work looks convincingly like the real thing, only it’s much more affordable.
