Plantarum effigies /e? Leonartho Fuschio, ac quinque diuersis linguis redditae ...
A 1549 botanical picture book printed in Lyon by Balthazar Arnoullet, reissuing Leonhart Fuchs's plant illustrations with text in five languages for herbalists and students of plants. Its pictures are small woodcuts of single plants, each with a stem and leaves drawn in fine clean line on a plain ground, with headings in Greek, Latin, French, German and Dutch above; a designer might take their economical botanical line work, clear labelled hierarchy, and spare layouts.
