Jane Furst (born 21 July 1944) is an English artist.

Career

Her work draws upon an interest in artists from the distant past, for example Northern Renaissance, from whom she borrows images, and also the study of natural form. She has done many etchings and Mezzotints inspired by the drawings and lithographs of Ernst Haeckel. She is interested in showing the monumentality of small things, such as the microscopic Radiolarian discovered by Haeckel.[citation needed]

One of the art books published by Furst and her daughter under the imprint Furst & King is on her late husband called Michael Copus, Museum Artist.[1]

Collections

Furst's work is held in the permanent collections of the Victoria and Albert Museum[2] and the Wellcome Collection.[3]
