What is the name of the book with weird drawings...
Not all of you will know what I am talking about. There is a book, age unknown (though I think it is from fairly modern times) that has fanciful, weird drawings--in color --of creatures, and botany *humans included. No one picture makes any sense to me, and the book offers no context. One drawing that stands out in my mind is of creatures putting skin on men and women.

What is the name of this book?
Took me a long time to realize it, but He was all I ever really needed...

Yes! This was the name of the one that I recall. I didn't know that I could download it, though. I will, thanks.

I didn't know of the others named....but will now look them up , too.

Not sure why the book came to mind today. I guess I am always hoping to puzzle it out one day. As many would like to do.

THANK YOU for your help!

This and The Voynich have similarities to the Codex seraphinianus at first glance.
