Rariorum plantarum historia is a 1601 botanical treatise by Carolus Clusius, a Flemish botanist who had been a court familiar of the Habsburg emperors Maximilian II and Rudolf II, printed in Antwerp by the Plantin press for a learned readership. Its woodcuts show plants drawn singly with roots, stems, leaves and flowers set against plain paper, a clear model for scientific botanical illustration and layout.
