Stuttgart Database of Scientific Illustrators

So, you know how sometimes you look at pictures in books and learn stuff about how things work? Like how our bodies are made up of bones and muscles, or how plants grow from little seeds? Well, there are people who draw those pictures and they are called scientific illustrators.

Now, there is a group of people in a place called Stuttgart who have made a big list of lots of different scientific illustrators who make all kinds of different pictures. They made this list because they think it's important for scientists and professors to have good pictures to help explain things to other people.

So, if someone in Stuttgart needs a picture of a bird with really blue feathers, they can look at the list of scientific illustrators and find someone who is really good at drawing birds with colorful feathers. Then they can ask that person to make them the perfect picture for their project.

It's like having a big book of really good artists who can help make the pictures you need for science!
