корнелиус ноземан (1720 - 1786)
Cornelius Nozeman was a Dutch church minister and ornithological naturalist.
Nozeman was the inspiration for the best Dutch work on ornithology of the 18th century. This long-term project took more than 60 years in total to complete. The work, entitled Nederlandsche Vogelen ("Birds of the Netherlands"), was begun in 1770 by two Dutch craftsmen. The famous engraver and painter Christian Sepp drew the illustrations, and Nozeman wrote the text for the first two volumes. After the death of Nozeman and Sepp, the work on the publication of the work was continued by their successor, physician and biologist Martinus Houttuyn. This voluminous and unique work was completed in 1830 by Christian Sepp's son Jan Christian, a natural history publisher, and his grandson Jan Sepp.
Each volume of this five-volume work of science and art contains 50 images of bird species, and each species is described on several pages.
