De stirpium maximearum, quae in Germania notra nascuntur, usitatis nomenclaturis,...interprete Davide Kybero...
A 1552 Latin botanical treatise by Hieronymus Bock, printed at Strasbourg and edited by David Kyber, cataloguing the plants that grow in Germany for physicians and herbalists. Its pictures are black-and-white woodcut plant portraits, each showing a whole plant with its roots, stems and leaves set against a faint printed page, which suggests clear, specimen-style botanical drawing for designers wanting engraved natural forms.
