My Studio Neighbors
William Hamilton Gibson, an American illustrator and naturalist, wrote and illustrated My Studio Neighbors, published by Harper & Brothers in 1897. Each chapter describes small creatures and plants he observed around his country studio: a familiar guest at the door, the cuckoos and the cowbird that lays its eggs in other birds' nests, the neighbors on the doorstep, a queer little family living on a bittersweet vine, a picnic of insects on honeydew, and the milkweed and the visitors it attracts. Gibson combines close observation with a storyteller's warmth, and his drawings are as precise as his prose. It is available to read online in your browser on Vinteuil, and the first chapter is free.
