Endless forms most beautiful is a painting inspired by genius biologist It features the final sentence from his book On the Origin of Species.

"There is grandeur in this view of life, with its several powers, having been originally breathed ... into a few forms or into one; and that, whilst this planet has gone cycling on according to the fixed law of gravity, from so simple a beginning endless forms most beautiful and most wonderful have been, and are being, evolved."

This hand-made drypoint print is tinted with watercolour, and shows 29 different species from the natural world.

It measures 400mm x 500mm, unframed. Limited edition, signed by the artist.
