brief_description
Accompanying Captain James Cook on his first voyage around the world, the naturalist Joseph Banks collected exotic flora from Madeira, Brazil, Tierra del Fuego, the Society Islands, New Zealand, Australia and Java, bringing back over 1300 species that had never been seen or studied by Europeans. On his return, Banks commissioned over 700 superlative engravings, which are known collectively as Banks' Florilegium.
