Anna Atkins (1799–1871) revolutionized botanical illustration with her groundbreaking use of cyanotype photography. Born into a scientific family in Kent, England, she combined her love for nature with the cutting-edge technology of her time. Her seminal work, Photographs of British Algae, was the first book to feature photographic images, marking a pivotal moment in both science and art.
