‘The Physiology and Hygiene of the House in Which We Live’ Watercolor Journal

Originally published in 1887 and penned by Marcus P. Hatfield, ‘The Physiology and Hygiene of the House in Which We Live’ has been reimagined as a watercolor journal with a wink. Clean lines, tidy margins, and one wild creative mess inside.

A timeless print from ‘Currier and Ives’ America’ (1952) graces the front – an original illustration from the late 1800s, full of charm, character, and old-world detail. Titled ‘The Four Seasons of Life: Middle Age’.

A true original – crafted once, never again, like a first edition whose story ends with you.
