Further information:
The book was inspired by the life and work of Orra White Hitchcock (1796–1863) one of America's earliest women botanical and scientific illustrators and artists. (from the colophon)
"...Black thread plays a prominent place in the visual narrative of the book. Thread is knotted, braided, and looped to create imagery that might reflect something done to calculate, control, or otherwise capture the passage of time. This imagery was inspired by the quipu, or knotted recording devices, developed during the Inca Empire." (extract from Inge Bruggeman, http://www.ingebruggeman.com)
