Natural History Memory Card Game

We have designed our memory card game in honour of Angelo Soliman (1721-1796) who, as an anonym mineral expert, has greatly contributed to the collection of the Museum of Natural History of Vienna. For a deeper understanding of the era and to learn about the life of Soliman we highly recommend Gergely Péterfy’s novel The Stuffed Barbarian that is based on period documents.

The animals shown on the pairs of cards are based on vintage drawings. The box contains 30 pairs, that is 60 cards.

Size of metal box

containing the cards: 10 cm x 7.5 cm x 7.5 cm
