Museum museorum is a 1714 German compendium of materials and drugs, compiled by Michael Bernhard Valentini and published in Frankfurt am Main for students and practitioners of materia medica and natural history. Its pictures are small copper-engraved and woodcut plates of plants, ornamental headpieces and a large folding-style scene, with dense printed German text behind them; a designer might take its engraved botanical stems and florid flourish borders as references for line-based ornament.
