This collection gathers plates by Pieter Cramer that are free to reuse. Every image comes from a public-domain or open-access collection, and each print page names its source. Each print ships on stretched canvas in five sizes, from 12x18 ($59) to 40x60 ($299), with free shipping in the US. Prints by one illustrator share a drawing style, so they sit well together.
