it was apparent that face masks are here to stay,
with that in mind Maria Popova, of Brain Pickings, has
released a series of face masks that bring a dose of history to
the modern-day essential, all images courtesy of Society6,
each
fabric covering is adorned with a vintage natural history or astronomy
illustration, including Ellen
Harding Baker’s solar system quilt,
or Ernst Haeckel’s renderings of jellyfish, and irises and
other medicinal plants originally painted by Elizabeth
Blackwell in the 18th century,
“Because of the mask’s particular folding pattern, some of the artwork came alive in a wholly new and unexpected way,” Popova writes in a post,
you can explore the full collection and pick up your own on Society6, well they all look nice, but I think I will stay with NHS blue!
