Tournefort, Joseph Pitton de · 1776 · 37 pictures

This is a German translation, published in 1776, of Joseph Pitton de Tournefort's account of a royal-commissioned voyage to the Levant, held by Heidelberg University Library. The pictures are numbered, engraved plant studies of Levantine flora, each showing a whole plant with roots, separate flower and seed details, and Latin and Greek captions, with the scale of botanical drawing that a designer could use for herbal motifs or botanical borders.
