Berolini (Berlin), 1788. Folio-size (35.6 x 22.2 cm) delicately hand-coloured loose lithograph of plants with printed caption.
The Pharmaceutica is a very rare work; it is seldom found complete and even individual plates of plants are rare. This print in excellent condition, very minor and vague spotting, no discoloration, no creases, dents or tears present. Nissen BBI, 784. Stafleu and Cowan (under 2834) "Not seen".
