A 1559 Lyon edition, printed by Macé Bonhomme, of Dioscorides' six-book herbal on medicinal materials, translated from Latin into French by Martin Mathée with physicians' annotations for physicians and apothecaries. Its woodcuts show whole plants with leafy stems, branching flower heads and detailed roots, drawn in a plain, sober line that suits botanical reference work and vintage scientific charts.
