96802Nuremberg & Eichstatt 1640. . Four copper engraved plates with hand-colour; framed and glazed; plate size: 500 x 440 mm.; overall size: 512 x 603 mm.<br /> Magnificent plates from Hortus Eystettensis one of the earliest and most famous works in the field which provides a pictorial record of the flowers grown in the greatest German garden of its time that of Prince Bishop of Eichstatt Johann Conrad von Gemmingen. The garden was begun by Joachim Camerarius in 1596 and after his death in 1598 completed by Basil Besler a pharmacist from Nuremberg. A visitor Philipp Hainhofer in 1611 marvelled at the eight gardens each containing 'flowers from a different country; they varied in the beds and flowers especially in the beautiful roses lilies tulips'. The Hortus records this variety and beauty. The book is exceptional in every sense; in its variety and range of flowers in its size in its fine quality of engraving. It is also one of the earliest records of flowers from a specific documented garden.<br /><br />Besler was asked to complete the work by Gemmingen in 1606; the huge nature of the task was clear to Besler and he enlisted the help of his younger brother Hieronymus and Ludwig Jungermann a nephew of Camerarius. Printing the Hortus may have begun as early as 1607. Drawings were made in situ and from specimens sent by the Bishop to Nuremberg; the Bishop reported to Hainhofer that he had boxes of fresh flowers sent every week to Besler at Nuremberg for sketching. A team of at least 10 engravers were employed to translate the drawings to copperplates.<br /><br />The gardens along with most of the town of Eichstatt were destroyed by the invading Swedish troops under Herzog Bernhard von Weimar in 1633-4 although they were partially restored by later bishops. Many of the original drawings survive in the University Library Erlangen.<br /> Nissen 158; Pritzel 745; Hunt 430; Blunt pp 95-97; Stafleu & Cowan 497. Nuremberg & Eichstatt, 1640. unknown

This is perhaps the most handsome and influential botanical of its day with its near-dreamlike depiction of plants suspended above cityscapes and other backgrounds.<br /><br />Munting 1626-1683 was a Dutch botanist and botanical artist the son of Henricus Munting 1583-1658. He studied under his father and at the universities of Franeker Utrecht and Leiden also spending two years in France where he obtained an M.D. degree in Angers. Returning to Groningen in 1651 he joined the staff at the Rijkshogeschool Groningen which eventually became the University of Groningen. Here he taught for 24 years as professor of botany and chemistry. On his father's death he assumed management of the Hortus Botanicus Groninganus from 1658 to 1683. His botanist friends sent him seeds from the Dutch East- and West Indies Africa and the Americas. His daughter Hester died after eating Deadly Nightshade from the Garden. Munting subsequently developed a particular interest in the medicinal uses of plants.<br /><br />The present work Munting's best known was first published in Dutch as Naauwkeurige Beschryving Der Aardgewassen 1696. Illustrated were trees shrubs flowers and grasses of temperate zones with some tropical and subtropical plants that had been introduced to the Netherlands.<br /> Nissen BBI 1429; Hunt 404.

The second section with 96 chapters includes information on laxatives aromatics fruits seeds gums and resins salts minerals goose-grease cheese honey ivory and much more. Anderson notes that this section probably contributed to the book's success: "It was concerned with the materials of medicine that were commonly available in the shops of apothecaries and spice merchants. Through the use of the <em>Herbarius</em> the average man could easily find what drugs to use and purchase them in most towns."</p><p>According to Anderson "the <em>Herbarius</em> sold as well in Italy if not better. There its second section may have contributed to its success for it was concerned with the materials of medicine that were commonly available in the shops of apothecaries and spice merchants. Through the use of the <em>Herbarius</em> the average man could easily find what drugs to use and purchase them in most towns. The second section has 96 chapters though many of them are very brief. They deal with the following: laxatives; aromatics; fruits seeds and plants of garden and orchard; gums and resins; salts; minerals and stones; and a variety of animals and their products such as goose-grease cheese honey and ivory" Anderson <em>Illustrated History of the Herbal</em> pp. 86-7. The last chapter CLI <em>de Vino e Aceto</em> is illustrated with a woodcut showing wine barels in a cellar. According to Hunt the woodcut on the title-page showing Saints Cosmos and Damian appears here for the first time.</p><p>Our copy has 2 full page and numerious marginal early 17th c. annotations in Portuguese mentioning Brazil in one case and giving the date of 1630 in another. There are two mentions of experiments in planting and cultivating cotton and ginger "brought from Brazil"--one of them dated 1643 f. aa6 r and f. Y6 r. In 1577 the Portuguese prohibited the cultivation of ginger in Bahia due to their interests in the India trade. However Bahian colonists ignored the law and continued to grow it selling it in secret to the Dutch and the English among others. The use of lead for treating bladder ulcers is also discussed f. Y6 r. Most curious is a recipe for avoiding and curing hemorroids by "Father Manoel da Anunciação Capuchino in the year 1630". The recipe involves frying small frogs in oil without salt "until the oil stops making noise. Once they are fried take them out of the oil and put the oil in a bottle and apply this liquid with your fingers on the bone and on the hemmorhoids and they will heal quickly" f.
