A 1605 Antwerp edition by Carolus Clusius, issued by the Plantin press, cataloguing exotic animals, plants, spices and foreign fruits, with Pierre Belon's observations included, written for naturalists and botanists. The woodcuts show single isolated specimens drawn in close outline and hatching, one fruit or object per plate, offering a designer examples of early modern scientific line illustration with dense parallel shading and cross-hatched textures.
