Berolini (Berlin), 1788. Folio-size (35.8 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 of a pepper plant is in very good condition, with a few faint and minor spots only. Some browning, and a small, old repair to the right outer margin. No dents or chips present. The colouring is precise and accurate. Nissen BBI, 784. Stafleu and Cowan (under 2834) "Not seen".
