Anna Atkins. Cyanotypes, published by Taschen in their Famous First Edition series, showcases the works of the first woman to use photography as artistic medium to document botanical species. Taschen reprints her British Algae and Cyanotypes of British and Foreign Ferns in its entirety.

The book was set in Flecha for the spine and titles, and Hoefler Titling for body text. Directed by Benedikt Taschen and edited by Peter Walther, it was published in English, French, and German (images of the two former editions are shown here).
