retirement & farewell party

Recently, I retired. On my farewell party I delivered my Blaschka lecture,

for the final time, to coworkers and  librarians. 

In addition,  there was a small exhibition of zoological illustrations.

 

These images were used by Leopold and Rudolf  as preparatory materials
for the designs of glass animal models.

All books are from the special collections of Utrecht University
& these clips pan you along the showcases.
