Berolini (Berlin), 1788. Folio-size (35.6 x 22.2 cm) delicately hand-coloured loose lithograph of plants with printed caption.
The Pharmaceuticais 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, vague pencil note below the caption, no discoloration, no creases, dents or tears present. Nissen BBI, 784. Stafleu and Cowan (under 2834) "Not seen".
