Hortus Indicus Malabaricus is a 1678 Latin botanical work published in Amsterdam by Johannes van Someren and Joannes van Dyck, compiled by Henricus van Rheede with Johannes Casearius and annotated by Theodoor Janssonius ab Almeloveen, documenting plants of the Malabar Coast of India for European scholars. The pictures are copper-engraved botanical plates and decorative title ornaments, with dense leafy scrollwork, fruit baskets and radiating concentric motifs, offering a designer a model for Baroque cartouche and foliate border construction.
