Berolini (Berlin), 1788. Folio-size (35.8 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 very good condition. Some vague spots and some browning in the right outer margin, vague unobtrusive crease to upper right margin outside the printed area, no dents or tears present. Nissen BBI, 784. Stafleu and Cowan (under 2834) "Not seen".
