A 1560 Strasbourg herbal compiled by Valerius Cordus and edited by Conrad Gesner, printed by Josias Rihel for physicians and pharmacists studying materia medica. Its pictures are small woodcut plants shown whole, with stems, divided leaves, flower heads and roots, drawn with dense parallel hatching that a designer could use as a model for botanical line work.
